Popis: Alterations in the cardiac alpha1-adrenoceptor and its subtypes in thyroxine-treated rats were studied by means of radioligand binding assays, measurement of contractile response and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The results showed that in thyroxine-treated rats the cardiac alpha1-adrenoceptor density (Bmax) was reduced from 51.6 +/- 6.0 fmol/mg in control to 40.9 +/- 3.7 fmol/mg (P
