Mirabegron relaxes urethral smooth muscle by a dual mechanism involving β3-adrenoceptor activation and α1-adrenoceptor blockade
(Wiley Online Library, 2015)
Mirabegron is the first β3-adrenoceptor (AR) agonist approved for treatment of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). This study aimed to investigate the effects of β3-adrenoceptor (AR) agonist mirabegron in mouse urethra. The ...
Hidden prenatal malnutrition in the rat: Role of β1- adrenoceptors on synaptic plasticity in the frontal cortex
(2011)
Moderate reduction in the protein content of the mother's diet (hidden malnutrition) does not alter body and brain weights of rat pups at birth, but leads to dysfunction of neocortical noradrenaline systems together with ...
β-Adrenoceptor blockade depresses molecular and functional plasticities in the rat neocortex
(2010)
β-Adrenergic receptor stimulation can significantly facilitate synaptic potentiation in the hippocampus and enhance memory processes, but its effect on neocortical plastic mechanisms is less conclusive. In the present study ...
NO production and eNOS phosphorylation induced by epinephrine through the activation of β-adrenoceptors
(2009)
Epinephrine plays a key role in the control of vasomotor tone; however, the participation of the NO/cGMP pathway in response to β-adrenoceptor activation remains controversial. To evaluate the involvement of the endothelium ...
Prognostic significance of α‐ and β2‐adrenoceptor gene expression in breast cancer patients
(The British Pharmacological Society, 2019-07)
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed and leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. It was classified within molecular intrinsic subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, human epidermal growth factor receptor ...
Measurement of inverse agonism in β-adrenoceptors
(Elsevier Inc, 2010-12)
Increasing numbers of compounds, previously classified as antagonists, were shown to inhibit this spontaneous or constitutive receptor activity, instead of leave it unaffected as expected for a formal antagonist. In addition, ...
