Absence of cysteine in mice coaxed fat-storing cells to burn energy, causing weight loss and offering potential therapeutic ...

The addition of β-adrenergic antagonists to the treatment regimen for heart failure has validated the neurohormonal hypothesis and provided much-improved outcomes. This benefit had been in ...

This article reviews the current state of knowledge and understanding of the genetic variation present in the three human beta-adrenergic receptor genes.

The table below is a review of notable updates that occurred in June 2025 for investigational products in development (not an inclusive list). Click on ...

The α 2a -adrenergic receptor is expressed in the central nervous system and mediates the effects of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine or noradrenaline.

A new oral drug mimics exercise, burns fat, lowers blood sugar, and preserves muscle mass, potentially outperforming Ozempic ...

Centhaquine (Lyfaquin®) is an adrenergic agent that increases cardiac preload by activating alpha2B adrenergic receptors to increase venous blood return to the heart and decreases cardiac ...

And when used in mice that already had aortic stenosis and established heart failure, stimulation of the beta-3 adrenergic receptor helped the mice recover normal heart function.

Norepinephrine modulates neuronal synapses by way of astrocyte adrenergic receptors. The astrocytes release ATP, which converts to adenosine, a neuromodulator that binds nearby neurons. Norepinephrine ...

A drug that can be taken orally could soon rival the likes of Ozempic for treating type 2 diabetes and obesity, according to a new study. Although its efficacy hasn't yet been tested in humans, the ...

Researchers at St. Jude, in collaboration with scientists from Stanford University, the University of Montreal, the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology and Cambridge University, investigated the ...

Gemtesa works directly on the beta-3 adrenergic receptors in the bladder muscle. Receptors are like doors that require a chemical “key” to open them and make reactions happen in the body.
