14-September-2008 18:02:41 - Adrenergic receptor Adrenaline Adrenaline Noradrenaline Noradrenaline The adrenergic receptors or adrenoceptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are targets of the catecholamines. Adrenergic receptors specifically bind their endogenous ligands, the catecholamines adrenaline and noradrenaline called epinephrine and norepinephrine in the United States, and are activated by these. Many cells possess these receptors, and the binding of an agonist will generally cause a sympathetic response ie the fight-or-flight response. For instance, the heart rate will increase and the pupils will dilate, energy will be mobilized, and blood flow diverted from other non-essential organs to skeletal muscle.

Phenylephrine is a selective agonist of the α receptor. β receptors have the subtypes β1, β2 and β3. All three are linked to Gs proteins, which in turn are linked to adenylyl cyclase. Agonist binding thus causes a rise in the intracellular concentration of the second messenger cAMP. Downstream effectors of cAMP include cAMP-dependent protein kinase PKA, which mediates some of the intracellular events following hormone binding. Isoprenaline is a selective agonist. Epinephrine binds its receptor, that associates with an heterotrimeric G protein. The G protein associates with adenylate cyclase that converts ATP to cAMP, spreading the signal more details...

The mechanism of adrenergic receptors. Adrenaline or noradrenaline are receptor ligands to either α1, α2 or β-adrenergic receptors. α1 couples to Gq, which results in increased intracellular Ca2+ which results in e.g. smooth muscle contraction. α2, on the other hand, couples to Gi, which causes a decrease of cAMP activity, resulting in e.g. smooth muscle contraction. β receptors couple to Gs, and increases intracellular cAMP activity, resulting in e.g. heart muscle contraction, smooth muscle relaxation and glycogenolysis.

Roles in circulation Epinephrine reacts with both α- and β-adrenoreceptors, causing vasoconstriction and vasodilation, respectively. Although α receptors are less sensitive to epinephrine, when activated, they override the vasodilation mediated by β-adrenoreceptors. The result is that high levels of circulating epinephrine cause vasoconstriction. At lower levels of circulating epinephrine, β-adrenoreceptor stimulation dominates, producing an overall vasodilation.

At one time, there was a subtype known as C, but was found to be identical to one of the previously discovered subtypes. To avoid confusion, naming was continued with the letter D. α receptors α receptors have several functions in common, but also individual effects. Common or still unspecified effects include: Vasoconstriction of arteries to heart coronary artery.2 Vasoconstriction of veins3 Decrease motility of smooth muscle in gastrointestinal tract4 α1 receptor Main article: Alpha-1 adrenergic receptor Alpha1-adrenergic receptors are members of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. Upon activation, a heterotrimeric G protein, Gq, activates phospholipase C PLC, which causes an increase in IP3 and calcium. This triggers all other effects. Specific actions of the α1 receptor mainly involves smooth muscle contraction. It causes vasoconstriction in many blood vessels including those of the skin gastrointestinal system and to kidney renal artery5 and brain.6. Other areas of smooth muscle contraction are for instance: ureter vas deferens hairs erector pili muscles uterus when pregnant urethral sphincter bronchioles although minor to the relaxing effect of β2 receptor on bronchioles Further effects include glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis from adipose tissue7 and liver, as well as secretion from sweat glands7 and Na+ reabsorption from kidney.7 Antagonists may be used in hypertension. α2 receptor Main article: Alpha-2 adrenergic receptor There are 3 highly homologous subtypes of α2 receptors: α2A, α2Î’, and α2C. Specific actions of the α2 receptor include: inhibition of insulin release in pancreas.7 induction of glucagon release from pancreas. contraction of sphincters of the gastrointestinal tract β receptors β1 receptor Main article: Beta-1 adrenergic receptor Specific actions of the β1 receptor include: Increase cardiac output, both by raising heart rate and increasing the volume expelled with each beat increased ejection fraction. Renin release from juxtaglomerular cells.7 Lipolysis in adipose tissue.7 β2 receptor Main article: Beta-2 adrenergic receptor The 3D crystallographic structure of the β2-adrenergic receptor has been determined PDB 2R4R, 2R4S, 2RH1.8910 Specific actions of the β2 receptor include: Smooth muscle relaxation, e.g. in bronchi.7 Lipolysis in adipose tissue.11 Anabolism in skeletal muscle.1213 Relax non-pregnant uterus.
