adrenergic receptors  

Définition

  • Adrenergic receptors, also referred to as adrenoceptors, are a class of G-protein coupled receptors that are targeted by catecholamines. These receptors, found in peripheral tissue, initiate a “fight-or-flight” sympathetic nervous response when bound to their endogenous ligands. [Source: Encyclopedia of Obesity; Adrenergic Receptors]
