  2. Beta-1 adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-1_adrenergic_receptor

    The beta-1 adrenergic receptor1 adrenoceptor), also known as ADRB1, can refer to either the protein-encoding gene (gene ADRB1) or one of the four adrenergic receptors. [5] It is a G-protein coupled receptor associated with the Gs heterotrimeric G-protein that is expressed predominantly in cardiac tissue. In addition to cardiac tissue, beta ...

  3. Beta1-adrenergic agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta1-adrenergic_agonist

    β 1-Adrenergic receptor agonists, also known as beta-1 agonists, are a class of drugs that bind selectively to the β 1-adrenergic receptor.As a result, they act more selectively upon the heart. β-Adrenoceptors typically bind to norepinephrine release by sympathetic adrenergic nerves and to circulating epinephrine.

  4. Adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenergic_receptor

    The adrenergic receptors or adrenoceptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are targets of many catecholamines like norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline) produced by the body, but also many medications like beta blockers, beta-2 (β 2) antagonists and alpha-2 (α 2) agonists, which are used to treat high ...

  5. Adrenergic receptor autoantibodies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenergic_receptor_auto...

    The combination of these two properties can result in bimodal effects on receptor activity that are meaningful for basal activity and chronotropic catecholamine responses of human cardiomyocytes.” [1] Beta-1 adrenergic receptors are the primary receptor of the heart and, therefore, autoantibodies to these receptors have been tied to many ...

  6. Beta-adrenergic agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-adrenergic_agonist

    Beta adrenergic agonists or beta agonists are medications that relax muscles of the airways, causing widening of the airways and resulting in easier breathing. [1] They are a class of sympathomimetic agents, each acting upon the beta adrenoceptors . [ 2 ]

  7. Adrenergic blocking agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenergic_blocking_agent

    Beta1 blocker will stop the action of beta-1 receptor via occupying the beta-1 receptor without any activation. [5] The beta-1 receptor is a G-protein-coupled receptor with Gs alpha subunit as its main communication method. [5] By signaling Gs, adenylyl cyclase is recruited to activate a cAMP pathway, which potentiates the receptor. [5]

  8. Adrenergic neuron blockers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenergic_neuron_blockers

    The beta-1 receptor is a G-protein-coupled receptor with the Gs alpha subunit as its main signaling protein. [4] The subunit dissociates from the receptor when activated, subsequently activating adenylyl cyclase to convert adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cAMP , which is a secondary messenger mediating the pharmacological effects. [ 4 ]

  9. Arrestin beta 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrestin_beta_1

    Arrestin beta 1 is a cytosolic protein and acts as a cofactor in the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase mediated desensitization of beta-adrenergic receptors. Besides the central nervous system, it is expressed at high levels in peripheral blood leukocytes, and thus the BARK/beta-arrestin system is believed to play a major role in regulating ...
