Molecular modeling studies have predicted that the beta-hydroxyl group of the catecholamines interacts with the beta 2-adrenoceptor at the serine residue at position 165 (Ser165) located on transmembrane helix IV; however, this has not been confirmed

Adrenoceptors can be subdivided into three major types, the α1-, α2-, and β-adrenoceptors. Each of these types can be further subdivided into three subtypes, based on pharmacological characteristics. Molecular cloning techniques have supported thi

The purpose of this study was to determine whether agonists and antagonists of alpha-adrenoceptors that affect calcium fluxes and protein kinase C signal transduction alter the chemosensitivity of cancer cells that exhibit multidrug resistance (MDR).

Carvedilol is a potent antihypertensive agent with a dual mechanism of action. At relatively low concentrations it is a competitive β-adrenoceptor antagonist and a vasodilator, whereas at higher concentrations it is also a calcium channel antagonist

The recombinant alpha2-adrenoceptors, designated as alpha2a and alpha2d, have highly similar amino acid sequences, but distinct pharmacological properties. It has been suggested that these two receptor subtypes are species orthologs, since the alpha2

Systolic hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. The determinants of systolic blood pressure are peripheral resistance and arterial compliance. Arterial vasoconstriction, vascular growth and fluid retention, induced by the ren

Although the selective alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonists were initially developed as antihypertensive drugs, and they are still utilized for this indication, the alpha1-adrenoceptor blockers are now used extensively for the symptomatic treatment of ben

Clinical studies conducted with carvedilol suggest that beta-adrenoceptor antagonism is an effective therapeutic approach to the treatment of heart failure. However, many beta-adrenoceptor antagonists are weak partial agonists and possess significant
