MeSH Heading: Receptors, Biogenic Amine
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.750.670
Unique ID: D017982
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D017982
Annotation: general; prefer specifics
Scope Note: Cell surface proteins that bind biogenic amines with high affinity and regulate intracellular signals which influence the behavior of cells. Biogenic amine is a chemically imprecise term which, by convention, includes the catecholamines epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine, the indoleamine serotonin, the imidazolamine histamine, and compounds closely related to each of these.
