Adrenergic receptors regulatory properties

Green SA, Turki J, Innis M, Liggett SB. Amino-terminal polymorphisms of the human beta 2-adrenergic receptor impart distinct agonist-promoted regulatory properties. Biochemistry 1994 33 9414-9419. 

This chapter will review the characteristics and regulatory properties of a2 receptors, neuropharmacology of the a2-adrenergic agonists, hypothesized mechanisms by which these medications alter central nervous system (CNS) activity, as well as a variety of issues related to their clinical use, including safety and adverse effects, dosing, and medication interactions.
