  2. Adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenergic_receptor

    The membrane the receptor is bound to in cells is shown with a gray stripe. 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 ...

  3. Group A nerve fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_A_nerve_fiber

    There are four subdivisions of group A nerve fibers: alpha (α) Aα; beta (β) Aβ; , gamma (γ) Aγ, and delta (δ) Aδ. These subdivisions have different amounts of myelination and axon thickness and therefore transmit signals at different speeds. Larger diameter axons and more myelin insulation lead to faster signal propagation.

  4. Alpha-2 adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-2_adrenergic_receptor

    The alpha-2 (α2) adrenergic receptor (or adrenoceptor) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) associated with the G i heterotrimeric G-protein. It consists of three highly homologous subtypes, including α 2A -, α 2B -, and α 2C -adrenergic. Some species other than humans express a fourth α 2D -adrenergic receptor as well. [1]

  6. GABRA2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GABRA2

    The subunit, GABRA2, is found primarily in the hippocampus and/or the forebrain. It is more confined to areas of the brain in comparison to other alpha subunits seen in GABA-A receptors. It is present in 35% of all GABA-A receptors being the fourth most abundant subunit next to GABRA1 and various beta subunits.

  7. Beta-2 adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-2_adrenergic_receptor

    The beta-2 adrenergic receptor (β 2 adrenoreceptor), also known as ADRB2, is a cell membrane-spanning beta-adrenergic receptor that binds epinephrine (adrenaline), a hormone and neurotransmitter whose signaling, via adenylate cyclase stimulation through trimeric G s proteins, increases cAMP, and, via downstream L-type calcium channel interaction, mediates physiologic responses such as smooth ...

  9. Alpha-adrenergic agonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-adrenergic_agonist

    In Wikidata. Alpha-adrenergic agonists are a class of sympathomimetic agents that selectively stimulates alpha adrenergic receptors. The alpha-adrenergic receptor has two subclasses α 1 and α 2. Alpha 2 receptors are associated with sympatholytic properties. Alpha-adrenergic agonists have the opposite function of alpha blockers.
