Abstract
GPCRs (G protein-coupled receptors), also known as 7 transmembrane domain receptors, are the largest receptor family in the human genome, with ≈800 members. GPCRs regulate nearly every aspect of human physiology and disease, thus serving as important drug targets in cardiovascular disease. Sharing a conserved structure comprised of 7 transmembrane α-helices, GPCRs couple to heterotrimeric G-proteins, GPCR kinases, and β-arrestins, promoting downstream signaling through second messengers and other intracellular signaling pathways. GPCR drug development has led to important cardiovascular therapies, such as antagonists of β-adrenergic and angiotensin II receptors for heart failure and hypertension, and agonists of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor for reducing adverse cardiovascular events and other emerging indications. There continues to be a major interest in GPCR drug development in cardiovascular and cardiometabolic disease, driven by advances in GPCR mechanistic studies and structure-based drug design. This review recounts the rich history of GPCR research, including the current state of clinically used GPCR drugs, and highlights newly discovered aspects of GPCR biology and promising directions for future investigation. As additional mechanisms for regulating GPCR signaling are uncovered, new strategies for targeting these ubiquitous receptors hold tremendous promise for the field of cardiovascular medicine.

Abstract
Background Drug resistance remains as one of the major challenges in melanoma therapy. It is well known that tumour cells undergo phenotypic switching during melanoma progression, increasing melanoma plasticity and resistance to mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitors (MAPKi). Methods We investigated the melanoma phenotype switching using a partial reprogramming model to de-differentiate murine melanoma cells and target melanoma therapy adaptation against MAPKi. Results Here, we show that partially reprogrammed cells are a less proliferative and more de-differentiated cell population, expressing a gene signature for stemness and suppressing melanocyte-specific markers. To investigate adaptation to MAPKi, cells were exposed to B-Raf Proto-Oncogene (BRAF) and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitors. De-differentiated cells became less sensitive to MAPKi, showed increased cell viability and decreased apoptosis. Furthermore, T-type calcium channels expression increased in adaptive murine cells and in human adaptive melanoma cells. Treatment with the calcium channel blocker mibefradil induced cell death, differentiation and susceptibility to MAPKi in vitro and in vivo. Conclusion In summary, we show that partial reprogramming of melanoma cells induces de-differentiation and adaptation to MAPKi. Moreover, we postulated a calcium channel blocker such as mibefradil, as a potential candidate to restore sensitivity to MAPKi in adaptive melanoma cells.

Abstract
Despite the absence of a systematic development plan, β-blockers have reached the top tier of medical therapies for chronic heart failure. The successful outcome was due to the many dedicated investigators who produced, over a 30-year period, increasing evidence that β-blocking agents should or actually did improve the natural history of dilated cardiomyopathies and heart failure. It took 20 years for supportive evidence to become undeniable, at which time in 1993 the formidable drug development resources of large pharmaceutical companies were deployed into Phase 3 trials. Success then came relatively quickly, and within 8 years multiple agents were on the market in the United States and Europe. Importantly, there is ample room to improve antiadrenergic therapy, through novel approaches exploiting the nuances of receptor biology and/or intracellular signaling, as well as through pharmacogenetic targeting.

Abstract
The interaction of catecholamines and drugs with adrenergic receptors leads to a set of biochemical reactions which ultimately results in a physiological response. A brief review is given of the classification of adrenergic receptors into subtypes and the use of ligand binding techniques for the identification and characterization of these receptors. Recent advances in the biochemistry of adrenergic receptors are reviewed with special reference to the interaction of the beta and alpha 2-receptors with guanine nucleotide regulatory proteins and adenylate cyclase. The role of calcium and phosphoinositides in the function of the alpha 1-receptor is also discussed.

Abstract
Binding of (125I)iodocyanopindolol (ICYP) and (3H)CGP-12177 to rat brain homogenates was characterized and compared. ICYP was shown to bind to both beta-adrenergic and serotonin1B (5HT1B) receptors whereas (3H)CGP-12177 only labelled the first ones. The addition of 10 microM serotonin (5HT) prevented ICYP binding to 5HT receptors and under these experimental conditions both ligands labelled a similar total number of beta-adrenoceptors in the different rat brain regions. ICYP displayed a higher affinity for cerebellar (mainly beta 2-subtype) than for cerebral cortex beta-adrenoceptors (mainly beta 1-subtype) suggesting a subtype selectivity. A multiple displacement binding approach using CGP-20712A, a beta 1-subtype ligand, as competitor revealed a 2.6 fold selectivity of ICYP for the beta 2-adrenoceptor subtype. On the other hand, (3H)CGP-12177 binds only to beta-adrenoceptors and is not subtype selective in the rat brain homogenate. Considering both its high specificity and its lack of subtype selectivity (3H)CGP-12177 seems to be a more suitable ligand than ICYP to non-selectively label beta-adrenoceptors in rat brain.

Abstract
From the point of view of a participant observer, I tell the discovery stories of trimeric G-proteins and GPCRs, beginning in the 1970s. As in most such stories, formidable obstacles, confusion, and mistakes make eventual triumphs even more exciting. Because these pivotally important signaling molecules were discovered before the recombinant DNA revolution, today's well-trained molecular biologist may find it amazing that we learned anything at all.

Abstract
Alterations in the myocardial receptor-G protein-adenylate cyclase (RGC) complex and cardiac adrenergic neurons in the failing human heart result in subsensitivity to beta-adrenergic stimulation. Pharmacologic interventions such as beta blockade may modify critical components of the RGC complex and partially restore the sensitivity of the beta-adrenergic pathway. Among the receptors coupled to the stimulatory (Gs) protein are the beta 1 and beta 2 receptors. Because of differences in receptor population and agonist (i.e., norepinephrine) affinity, the beta 1-receptor is the predominate adrenergic subtype regulating contractility in the nonfailing myocardium. Down-regulation occurs in the myocardial beta-receptor component of the RGC complex with mild-to-moderate and severe left ventricular dysfunction. However, abnormalities of the RGC complex vary with the etiology of heart failure; beta 1-receptor down-regulation is greater in idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy than in post-infarction cardiomyopathy, while beta-receptor uncoupling is greater in post-infarction disease. In chronic heart failure, the adrenergic nervous system is activated in the heart and kidney. There is evidence that an increased cardiac norepinephrine concentration contributes to the decrease in beta 1-receptor density in heart failure. However, norepinephrine exposure is not the only factor responsible for regulating beta-adrenergic receptors in heart failure. Chronic beta blockade may improve hemodynamic and clinical response in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy by protecting the myocardium from the cardiotoxic effects of increased catecholamines and by up-regulating the beta 1 receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
(-)-[125I]-Iodocyanopindolol [-)ICYP), used to characterize beta adrenoceptors on membrane preparations from rat cerebral cortex, was shown to have affinity for both beta adrenoceptors and serotonin receptors. Therefore, 10 microM serotonin was added to the assays to prevent (-)ICYP binding to serotonin receptors. Under these conditions, (-)ICYP binding to the cortical membrane preparation was reversible and saturable, and the association reaction was very slow. The dissociation reaction was also very slow, and revealed two affinity states corresponding to a high and a low affinity state. Scatchard analysis showed a single class of binding sites with an equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) of 20.7 pM, and a maximal density of binding sites (Bmax) of 95.1 fmol/mg membrane protein. Displacement binding analyses revealed a potency series of (-) isoproterenol greater than (-) epinephrine equal to (-) norepinephrine, suggesting a predominance of the beta 1 adrenoceptor subtype. Detailed competition ligand binding studies with the selective beta 1 adrenoceptor antagonist ICI-89406 and the selective beta 2 adrenoceptor antagonist ICI-118551, showed that about 70% of the beta adrenoceptor population in the rat cortex is of the beta 1 subtype with the remainder being of the beta 2 subtype. We conclude that since (-)ICYP binds to both beta adrenoceptors and serotonin receptors, it is important to prevent the binding of (-)ICYP to serotonin receptors by adding a suppressing ligand like excess cold serotonin when assaying beta adrenoceptors. We have presented the first such characterization of rat cerebral cortical beta adrenoceptors with (-)ICYP in this study.

Abstract
Binding of catecholamines to the beta-adrenergic receptor results in the activation of adenylate cyclase and the intracellular formation of adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP). In the past 20 years the events that lead from hormone binding at the cell surface receptor site to the synthesis of cAMP at the inner layer of the membrane have been intensively studied. Signal transduction in this system involves the sequential interaction of the beta-adrenergic receptor with the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (Gs) and the adenylate cyclase catalyst (C). The mechanism of signal transduction from the receptor through Gs to C, as well as the role of the adenylate cyclase inhibitory G protein Gi, is discussed.

Abstract
1. (-)[125I]-Cyanopindolol (CYP) binding to non-beta-adrenoceptor sites in dog kidney was characterized in homogenate preparations and their distribution in sections determined using autoradiography. 2. In homogenate studies, (-)[125I]-CYP bound to a single population of non-interacting sites (Bmax = 5.45, s.e.m. = 1.00 fmol/mg wet weight; nH = 0.99, s.e.m. = 0.01) with high affinity (KD = 3.84, s.e.m. = 0.76 nmol/l, n = 40. 3. In competition studies, compounds selective for alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors, muscarinic cholinoceptors and receptors for 5-HT, histamine and benzodiazepines, calcium channel antagonists, catecholamine uptake inhibitors, MAO inhibitors and adrenergic neurone blockers were ineffective at concentrations of 10 mumol/l. 4. Compounds selective for dopamine D1-receptors (fluphenazine, SCH 23390 and SK & F 82526) and D2-receptors (pimozide, domperidone, spiperone, haloperidol, sulpiride, cis- and trans-flupenthixol) competed with similar affinities (5-25 mumol/l) for (-)[125I]-CYP binding. 5. In autoradiographic studies, (-)[125I]-CYP binding to non-beta-adrenoceptor sites was localized over glomeruli, juxtaglomerular apparatus, distal tubules, blood vessels and medullary rays and tubules. 6. It is concluded that in dog kidney, (-)[125I]-CYP binds to a site closely associated with dopamine receptors.

Abstract
The beta 1- and beta 2-adrenoceptor affinity and stimulatory effects of iodinated (S)-pindolol (IPIN) and (S)-pindolol were investigated in vitro using beta-adrenoceptor binding technique and isolated right atrium (rate increase, beta 1) and uterus (relaxation, beta 2) of the rat. IPIN had a higher affinity towards beta-adrenoceptors compared to (S)-pindolol, with some beta 2-adrenoceptor selectivity. In the rat uterus, IPIN produced only marginal stimulatory effects, while (S)-pindolol caused a concentration-dependent relaxation with a maximal effect that was 55% of that generated by isoprenaline. In the right atrium IPIN caused an increase in the atrial rate similar to that caused by (S)-pindolol. The concentration of IPIN required in the right atrium for a half-maximal response (pD2 = 7.81) was markedly greater than that required for occupation of half the beta-adrenoceptor population (pKB = 9.81). The beta 1-selective blocker metoprolol antagonized the effect of (S)-pindolol and IPIN on the atrial rate but a greater concentration of metoprolol (5 X 10(-6) M compared with 5 X 10(-7) M) was required to antagonize the effect of IPIN significantly. It is concluded that iodination of (S)-pindolol increased its affinity and decreased its efficacy towards beta-adrenoceptors.

Abstract
Developments in the receptor concept have greatly influenced our current knowledge of the beta-adrenoceptor. The triad of pharmacology, organic chemistry and studies in structure-activity relationships is discussed along historical lines, as it has been and still is an impetus for progress in the biochemistry of ligand-receptor interactions. With respect to the beta-adrenoceptor complex these advances which have led to a model in which three protein structures are functionally interacting within the frame of the cell wall: the beta-adrenoceptor, the regulatory guanine nucleotide binding protein, and the enzyme adenylate cyclase, are reviewed.

Abstract
The number of beta-adrenoceptors in myocardium and spleen from 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OH-DA) treated cats was determined by radioligand binding with [125I]-iodohydroxybenzylpindolol (IHYP). The effectiveness of 6-OH-DA pretreatment was assessed by analyses of the tissue content of catecholamines and the contractile response of isolated splenic strips to electrical stimulation. Since no effect on the splenic strip was produced by the beta-agonist isoprenaline, whereas noradrenaline caused contraction, it is concluded that the smooth muscle of the splenic capsule is controlled by postjunctional alpha-adrenoceptors. The number of specific IHYP binding sites were reduced by 70% in whole spleen tissue and totally abolished in the splenic capsule by pretreatment with 6-OH-DA. Subclass analysis revealed that the reduction in total splenic beta-adrenoceptor number was due to a loss of beta 2-adrenoceptors. However, the 6-OH-DA induced chemical sympathectomy did not produce any alteration either in beta-adrenoceptor density or the relative distribution of the beta-adrenoceptor subtype in the myocardium. It is suggested that a loss of prejunctional beta-adrenoceptors, due to chemical sympathectomy, might be compensated for by an increased number of postjunctional beta-adrenoceptors in the myocardium due to the development of denervation supersensitivity in this tissue. In conclusion, the findings provide direct biochemical evidence for existence of prejunctional beta 2-adrenoceptors on the sympathetic nerve terminals of the cat spleen.

(-)-[125I]-CYP binding to sections was of high affinity (KD = 55.8 pmol/l, s.e.m. = 8.1, n = 4) to a single population of non-interacting sites (nH = 0.95, s.e.m. = 0.01, Bmax = 0.74 fmol/section, s.e.m. = 0.12, n = 4) and stereoselective with respect to the (-)- and (+)-isomers of both propranolol and pindolol. Autoradiographic studies showed that (-)-[125I]-CYP binding was localized to areas in the renal cortex and medulla. Both cortical and medullary binding were abolished by the inclusion of (-)-propranolol (1 mumol/l) in the incubation medium, whereas (-)-isoprenaline (200 mumol/l) selectively abolished cortical binding. Medullary binding could be prevented by the inclusion of the lipophilic compounds cinanserin (10 mumol/l), haloperidol (10 mumol/l) or phentolamine (10 mumol/l), either alone or together or by washing at 37 degrees C. These results suggest that medullary binding sites are lipid rather than receptor-related. In conclusion, in mouse kidney sections, (-)-[125I]-CYP binds to discrete areas in the cortex and medulla. Cortical binding sites have the molecular characteristics of beta-adrenoceptors while medullary binding sites are lipid-related. Caution should therefore be exercised when defining non-specific binding of lipophilic radioligands. The autoradiographic technique is useful for discriminating between receptor and non-receptor binding sites.

Abstract
Iodinated bivalent ligands 3 and 4 and a monovalent ligand 5 were prepared from the cardioselective beta-antagonist, practolol. 125I-labeled 3, 4 and 5 were prepared by solid phase isotopic exchange reaction with carrier-free Na125I and examined in rats as potential receptor-site-directed myocardial imaging agents. Biodistribution of these agents in rats indicated that 125I-3 and 125I-4 were localized in the heart similarly to 125I-5 and the [125I]iodobenzoyl (6) that was previously reported. Localization of 125I-3 and 125I-4, was more persistent in the heart than that of 125I-monovalent ligands 5 and 6. Heart-to-blood ratios of 125I-3 and 125I-4 were significantly lower than those of 125I-5 and 125I-6, due mainly to slow blood clearance rates of 125I-3 and 125I-4.

Abstract
beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors coexist in atria of humans and a variety of other species. The significance of these receptors and the quantitative extent to which beta 2-adrenergic receptors contribute to the electrophysiologic effects of catecholamines acting at beta-adrenergic receptors have not been determined. In the present study, the beta 1-selective antagonist ICI 89,406 and the beta 2-selective antagonist ICI 118,551 were used to determine the relative densities of beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors on membranes prepared from dog atria and the contribution that each subtype makes to isoproterenol-induced shortening of action potential duration measured at 75% repolarization (APD75). Computer-aided nonlinear regression analysis of the inhibition of the specific binding of [125I]iodopindolol and the inhibition of isoproterenol-stimulated APD75 shortening by these antagonists showed that a two-site model fits the data better than a one-site model (P less than 0.0001). The affinity constants for each selective antagonist determined by inhibition of APD75 shortening were similar to those determined in studies of the inhibition of the specific binding of [125I]iodopindolol to beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors. beta 2-Adrenergic receptors made up approximately equal to 25% of the total number of beta-adrenergic receptors but mediated approximately equal to 50% of the electrophysiologic effect of isoproterenol. The inhibition of the binding of [125I]iodopindolol and of the APD75 shortening by propranolol, a nonselective antagonist, was best fit by a one-site model. In other experiments, dogs were treated with reserpine and atropine to eliminate complications caused by the presence of endogenous norepinephrine and acetylcholine. Results obtained with atria from these animals were similar to those obtained in studies with control atria. These data suggest that beta 2-adrenergic receptors as well as beta 1-adrenergic receptors are involved in mediating the electrophysiologic effects of catecholamines in dog atrial muscle and that both beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors are present on atrial muscle cells.

Abstract
The new benzamide derivative [125I]iodosulpride is a highly sensitive and selective ligand for D-2 dopamine receptors and displays a very low nonspecific binding to membrane or autoradiographic sections. On autoradiographic images, D-2 receptors are present not only in well-established dopaminergic areas but also, in a discrete manner, in a number of catecholaminergic regions in which the dopaminergic innervation is still unknown, imprecise, or controversial, as in the sensorimotor cerebral cortex or cerebellum. This widespread distribution suggests larger physiological and pathophysiological roles for cerebral dopamine receptors than was previously thought.

Abstract
The present data demonstrate increased binding of various iodinated adrenergic radioligands. In contrast, this was not observed for [3H]dihydroalprenolol. This systematic deviation of apparent binding parameters can be explained by the inappropriate use of a decay correction factor, indicating that the decayed iodinated radioligands lose their binding ability. Consequently no correction for decay is required in the case of iodinated adrenergic radioligands.

Abstract
Biochemical investigation of receptors for neurotransmitters and drugs in the brain has been one of the most active areas of molecular neuroscience during the past decade. This work has permitted fundamental insights into how binding of neurotransmitters to their receptors excites or inhibits neuronal firing or changes cellular metabolism. The recognition of receptor subtypes has suggested subtle ways for neurotransmitters to modulate neuronal functioning. Finally, the ability to measure receptor sites in simple test tube systems and to distinguish readily between agonists and antagonists has provided useful probes for drug discovery programs.

Abstract
The effects of catecholamines in the central and peripheral nervous systems appear to be mediated through interactions with 2 major classes of receptor: alpha-adrenoceptors and beta-adrenoceptors. Subtypes of both alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors exist. In the periphery, alpha 1-receptors are located postsynaptically, mediating the excitatory effects of catecholamines at alpha-receptors. alpha 2-Adrenoceptors, on the other hand, are autoreceptors involved in the regulation of noradrenaline (norepinephrine) release. In the central nervous system, both alpha 1- and alpha 2-receptors exist on postsynaptic cells; there are also 2 principal subtypes of beta-adrenoceptors. beta 1-Receptors have a high affinity for both noradrenaline and adrenaline (epinephrine) and are found in the heart, brain, and adipose tissue. beta 2-Receptors have a low affinity for noradrenaline and are involved in mediation of relaxation of vascular and other smooth muscles and in many of the metabolic effects of catecholamines. A variety of effector systems have been implicated in the actions of catecholamines. Most, though not all, of the effects of catecholamines at beta-receptors are mediated through activation of adenyl cyclase and increases in cyclic AMP accumulation. The effects of catecholamines at alpha-receptors generally involve other second messenger systems. Thus, in at least some systems, stimulation of alpha 1-adrenoceptors mediates increases in phosphoinositide breakdown, while alpha 2-adrenoceptors appear to act through inhibition of adenyl cyclase activity. The pharmacological effects of alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors were initially characterised by measuring responses observed in intact preparations. The advent of the use of radioligand binding techniques has allowed direct approaches to the characterisation of receptor properties. The use of radioligands makes it possible to determine the affinities of receptors for specific ligands, and it is possible to determine the density of receptors in a tissue. Finally, in vitro assays serve as a means through which receptors can be followed during solubilisation, isolation, and reconstitution. Several ligands are now available for the study of alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors. In general, relatively selective radioligands are available for the study of alpha-receptors. Thus, 3H-WB 4101 and 3H-prazosin are selective ligands for alpha 1-receptors; the ligand 125I-IBE 2254 also shows high selectivity for alpha 1-receptors. 3H-Yohimbine and 3H-rauwolscine are selective antagonists for the labelling of alpha 2-receptors and 3H-clonidine is a selective agonist used for studying alpha 2-receptors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The beta-adrenergic receptor, transduction processes and catalytic activity of the adenylate cyclase enzyme complex have been investigated in rabbit heart at different stages of biological maturation. The binding of [3H]-dihydroalprenolol to a washed membrane preparation isolated from rabbit ventricular muscle was used to characterize beta-adrenergic receptors. Significant age-related differences were noted in beta-receptor affinity (Kd) and density (RD) of neonatal and adult animals; the adult Kd was 3.7-fold greater and the RD 2-fold higher than the neonates. No significant differences in these parameters were detected among the 27-day old fetus and the 1- and 7-day old neonates. Age-dependent differences in agonist isoproterenol affinity for the receptor were not observed in contrast to the significant changes in antagonist (DHA) affinity. Age-related changes in receptor affinity were also quantitated by determining the inhibitory potency of alprenolol on isoproterenol stimulated adenylate cyclase enzyme activity. A decreased affinity of the beta-adrenergic receptor for alprenolol in the adult heart was indicated by a 3.7-fold greater Ki for the adult than the 1-day old neonate. Ontogenic variations in the coupling efficiency between the receptor and catalytic components of the adenylate cyclase complex were also evaluated. The Kd of the beta-adrenergic receptor for isoproterenol and the EC50 for adenylate cyclase stimulation were determined under similar conditions. The corresponding coupling index (Kd/EC50) was found to be 2.4-fold greater in the 1-day old neonate than adult, suggesting that for a given percentage increase in adenylate cyclase activity, a lower percentage of beta-adrenergic receptor sites need be occupied in the neonate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
3H-(+/-) propranolol and 125I-(+/-) cyanopindolol have been used to characterize beta adrenoceptors of liver, lung, kidney and heart of rat. Two main binding parameters, KD and Bmax were measured using either cells, homogenates or plasma membranes of each organ (except heart). Results show that the most accurate determination of KD and Bmax involves: (1) a previous extraction of plasma membranes (2) the use of a ligand of a high affinity for beta adrenoceptors (3) a high specific radioactivity of this ligand. 125I-(+/-) cyanopindolol seems to be a better ligand than 3H(+/-) propranolol for such determinations.

Abstract
Isoproterenol and other agonists readily dissociate from the beta-adrenergic receptor in turkey erythrocyte membranes. However, when a low concentration of deoxycholate is added, the receptor locks the prebound agonist; i.e., the rate of dissociation of the prebound agonist decreases drastically. The dissociation of prebound antagonists is slightly increased by deoxycholate. Locking, which is thus agonist specific, occurs in the cold, is reversed when detergent is removed from the membranes, and appears not to require the guanyl nucleotide binding protein of the adenylate cyclase system. It is suggested that this induced fit of a receptor to an agonist represents the specific conformational response that normally propagates in the receptor molecule in its interaction with the next component along the pathway of signal transmission.

Abstract
Adult male rats were treated chronically with haloperidol (1 mg/kg) daily or propranolol (10 mg/kg bid) and evaluated for changes in shock-induced fighting. Haloperidol suppressed fighting. Chronic propranolol facilitated fighting when rats were tested eight hours after injection. Acutely, either 5 or 10 mg/kg of d,1-propranolol suppressed shock-induced fighting. Chronic pindolol (10 mg/kg bid) and chronic 1-propranolol (5 mg/kg bid) administration increased fighting. Chronic d,1-propranolol, 1-propranolol or pindolol administration was associated with an increase in Bmax for beta-adrenergic receptors. No change in fighting or Bmax was observed with the chronic administration of d-propranolol (5 mg/kg bid) or metoprolol (10 mg/kg bid). This increase in shock-induced fighting appears to be a behavioral response developing as a consequence of increased beta-adrenergic receptors responding to endogenously released norepinephrine.

Abstract
Isoproterenol (ISO), a potent beta-adrenoreceptor agonist, was found to interfere with the development and progression of hamster hereditary polymyopathy. Cytoprotection involved both skeletal and heart muscles with reduced myofibrillar degeneration, phagocytosis, and an unusual scarring process rarely seen at this stage of the disease. A decrease in the Ca content of heart and hemidiaphragm homogenates corroborated these findings. The significant drop of serum creatine kinase with restoration of alkaline phosphatase activity towards normal values provided additional support to the therapeutic effect of ISO. Except for an increase in magnesium, there were no changes in serum electrolytes. The modifications in plasma membrane permeability together with improvement in microcirculation are some of the features whereby ISO can ameliorate muscle cell energy metabolism. It is inferred that the alleged primary role of calcium in the development of this inherited myopathy should be further scrutinized.

Abstract
Investigation of binding properties of (+), (-) and (+/-) 125Iodocyanopindolol (ICYP) to beta 1-adrenoceptors of guinea pig left ventricle membranes revealed that these radioligands bind to receptors in a high and low affinity state which is not influenced by guanylnucleotides. The contribution of the (+)enantiomer to the binding of the racemic ligand at low receptor concentrations can be neglected since the dissociation time courses of (+/-) and (-) ICYP are identical. The existence of two affinity states of beta-adrenoceptors interacting with the antagonist ICYP was evident from 1: biphasic dissociation kinetics and 2: from curvilinear Scatchard plots.

Abstract
The ocular effects of beta-adrenergic agonists and antagonists are reviewed. The permeability of the rabbit corneal epithelium was estimated for various instilled drugs, and difference in pharmacokinetics of timolol between the albino and pigmented rabbit demonstrated. The effects of the drugs on the cornea and the lens epithelium, and also the distribution of the adrenergic receptors in the intraocular muscles were discussed. The beta-adrenergic receptors are present in the ciliary processes of the rabbit as shown through studies by biochemical pharmacology and cytochemical electron microscopy. Adrenergic effects on the blood flow and the vascular permeability of the anterior uvea were discussed. The effects of adrenergic drugs on aqueous humor dynamics differ considerably among rabbits, monkey and the human subjects, and they were discussed separately for these species. The mechanism underlying the hypotensive effects of beta-adrenergic drugs is complex, but the available data indicate that in the human eye the hypotensive effects of epinephrine are attributed mainly to a decrease in the outflow resistance and the effects of timolol are principally to a reduction of aqueous humor formation.

Abstract
The beta-adrenergic receptor of the frog erythrocyte has been solubilized in an active form with digitonin and purified by affinity chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography. Purified preparations contain a single band of iodinated protein of apparent Mr = 58,000. This peptide appears to represent the ligand binding subunit of the receptor since purified preparations bind ligands with the same beta-adrenergic specificity as the solubilized or membrane-bound receptor, display the same isoelectric point and similar sedimentation characteristics in sucrose density gradients. The same ligand binding subunit can also be identified in partially purified receptor preparations or in membranes by photoaffinity labelling or photodependent crosslinking of two radiolabelled beta-adrenergic antagonists, p-azidobenzylcarazolol and p-aminobenzylcarazolol.

Abstract
Two alpha-adrenoceptor antagonists, phentolamine and 2-(beta-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethylaminomethyl)-tetralone (BE 2254) which are phenolic derivatives were radioiodinated after chloramine-T oxidation of Na125I and the labelled material isolated by chromatography. 125I-phentolamine does not bind selectively to alpha-adrenoceptors in guinea pig brain whereas the 125I-BE 2254 derivative binds rapidly, reversibly and with high affinity to these receptors with a Kd of 230 pM. At low concentrations of 125I-BE 2254 (less than 100 pM) approx. 90% of the bound radioligand is specifically bound and under these conditions drug displacement studies show that the ligand binds predominantly to the alpha 1 subclass of adrenoceptors. Binding measurements to kidney and smooth muscle membrane preparations indicate that 125I-BE 2254 may also be a useful tool in the study of alpha-adrenoceptors in peripheral tissues. The high specific activity of 125I-BE 2254 permits the use of minimal quantities of membrane material for receptor assay and ligand displacement measurements, e.g. 250 micrograms per assay tube, and this provides a significant advantage over the use of existing radioligands such as 3H-prazosin which requires approx. 40 times as much tissue.

Abstract
Primary reaggregate cultures from 17-day embryonic mouse brains were prepared and tested for beta -adrenergic response. Isoproterenol stimulated the production of cAMP 3- to 4-fold over basal levels after 10 days in culture. The response to isoproterenol was rapid, reaching a maximum 1-2 min after stimulation, and was blocked by propranolol. The beta-adrenergic receptor was characterized in membranes prepared from reaggregates by measurement of specific binding of [125I]iodohydroxybenzylpindolol (IHYP). The Kd for IHYP was 100-300 pM and did not change as a function of time in culture. A maximum receptor density of approximately 80-110 fmol/mg membrane protein was found. Both beta-adrenergic receptors and response appeared at times in culture, which were approximately equivalent to birth.
