Pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest types of the disease, has been linked to obesity and higher stress levels, a new UCLA ...

The addition of β-adrenergic receptor antagonists to a medical regimen for heart failure that includes angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors as background therapy has been associated ...

Guanfacine belongs to the class of medications known as central alpha 2A-adrenergic receptor agonists. This class of medications generally helps open your blood vessels, which may lower your heart ...

The crystal structure of a second G protein–coupled receptor sheds light on these key pharmaceutical targets. In contrast, β2AR and essentially all of the other GPCRs are present at very low ...

Stress hormones activate the β-adrenergic receptor/PKA pathway, while obesity-related signals mainly use the PKD pathway.

A decade after identifying the first “short sleep gene,” Fu’s lab discovered another one in 2019: a mutation in the adrenergic receptor beta-1 (ADRB1) gene. To understand its effects ...

A new study led by UCLA investigators suggests that chronic stress and an unhealthy diet may work together to fuel the early ...

adrenergic receptor blocking agent that slows the sinus rate and decreases AV nodal conduction. The β-blocking activity of metoprolol has been shown by reduction in heart rate and cardiac output ...
