Parent topics
- Adrenergic receptor [r]: Cell-surface proteins that bind epinephrine and/or norepinephrine with high affinity and trigger intracellular changes. The two major classes of adrenergic receptors, alpha and beta, were originally discriminated based on their cellular actions but now are distinguished by their relative affinity for characteristic synthetic ligands. [e]
Subtopics
- Adrenergic alpha-agonist [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Adrenergic alpha-antagonist [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Adrenergic beta-agonist [r]: Class of drugs used to treat asthma and other pulmonary disease states. [e]
- Adrenergic beta-antagonist [r]: Drugs that bind to but do not activate beta-adrenergic receptors thereby blocking the actions of beta-adrenergic agonists. Adrenergic beta-antagonists are used for treatment of hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, angina pectoris, glaucoma, migraine headaches, and anxiety. [e]
- Adrenergic uptake inhibitor [r]: Drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor for the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine by blocking the action of the norepinephrine transporter. [e]
- Adrenal gland [r]: A pair of glands located at the cranial pole of each of the two kidneys. Each adrenal gland is composed of two distinct endocrine tissues with separate embryonic origins, the adrenal cortex producing glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids and the adrenal medulla producing neurotransmitters. [e]
- Adrenal insufficiency [r]: Adrenocortical insufficiency caused by disease, suppression by drugs, destruction, or surgical removal of the adrenal cortices. [e]
- Dopamine [r]: A monoamine neurotransmitter formed in the brain by the decarboxylation of dopa and essential to the normal functioning of the central nervous system. [e]
- Adrenergic uptake inhibitor [r]: Drug which acts as a reuptake inhibitor for the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine by blocking the action of the norepinephrine transporter. [e]
- Dopamine uptake inhibitor [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Escitalopram [r]: A second-generation antidepressant of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor class, which also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from tardive dyskinesia in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate this condition.
