- They act on one or more adrenergic receptor sites located in the effector cells of muscles such as the heart, bronchiole walls, gastrointestinal (GI) tract, urinary bladder, and ciliary muscles of the eye. (basicmedicalkey.com)
- Receptors for a specific hormone may be found on many different cells or may be limited to a small number of specialized cells. (openstax.org)
- On their surface, most cells have many different types of receptors. (msdmanuals.com)
Bound2
- Melatonin receptors - bound by melatonin. (vidque.com)
- The human β2 adrenergic receptor bound to a G-protein ( 3sn6 ) is featured in a scene above, and additional structures are on the Adrenergic receptor page . (proteopedia.org)
Contractility2
- When beta-1 receptors are stimulated they increase the heart rate and increase the heart's strength of contraction or contractility. (meltingpointathens.com)
- Agonism of beta-1 adrenergic receptors lead to increased strength of contractility, conduction of nerve impulses, speed of relaxation, and rate in the heart. (drugbank.com)

Adrenoceptor1
- The beta-1 adrenergic receptor (β 1 adrenoceptor), also known as ADRB1, is a beta-adrenergic receptor, and also denotes the human gene encoding it. (meltingpointathens.com)
