We found that alpha-2 adrenergic agonists generally had no clear benefits for preventing death or major complications after surgery. For people having major operations other than heart surgery, ...

Alpha-2 (α-2) adrenergic agonists are a group of drugs that have been tested for the purpose of preventing or treating shivering. We aimed with this review to consider whether α-2 agonists can be ...

Background: Alpha-1-adrenergic receptor (AR) agonists classically increase blood pressure (BP). Among the 3 alpha-1-AR subtypes, A, B, and D, the alpha-1A is required for cardiac protection in a ...

Cerebral blood volume and intracranial pressure may be modified by influences on cerebral veins. The known adrenergic innervation of cerebral veins and their sensitivity to norepinephrine raised the ...

Alpha-1 adrenergic receptors (α1-ARs) are a subset of G protein-coupled receptors that play a pivotal role in cardiovascular homeostasis. While traditionally recognised for their involvement in ...

That’s where nonstimulants come into play. Guanfacine (Intuniv) and clonidine (Kapvay, Onyda XR) are two non-stimulant drugs that belong to a class of medications called alpha-2 adrenergic agonists.

alpha-Adrenergic receptor-related properties, specifically, norepinephrine affinity, occupancy and reserve during contraction, were determined in segments of rat resistance arteries. These were ...

The family of adrenergic receptors involved in its regulation includes 9 different subtypes: three α1-receptors (A, B and D), three α2-receptors (A, B and C), and three ß-adrenergic receptors (ß1, ß2, ...
