Proudman, R. G. W., Akinaga, J., & Baker, J. G. (2022). The signaling and selectivity of α-adrenoceptor agonists for the human α2A, α2B and α2C-adrenoceptors and comparison with human α1 and β-adrenoceptors.

α2-adrenoceptors, (α2A, α2B and α2C-subtypes), are Gi-coupled receptors. Central activation of brain α2A and α2C-adrenoceptors is the main site for α2-agonist mediated clinical responses in hypertension, ADHD, muscle spasm and ITU management of sedat...

α2-Adrenoceptors, subdivided into α2A, α2B, and α2C subtypes and expressed in heart, blood vessels, kidney, platelets and brain, are important for blood pressure, sedation, analgesia, and platelet aggregation. Brain α2C-adrenoceptor blockade has also...
