MeSH Heading: Receptors, Adrenergic, beta-2
Tree Number(s): D12.776.543.750.670.300.300.340.200; D12.776.543.750.695.150.300.340.725; D12.776.543.750.720.330.300.340.200
Unique ID: D018343
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018343
Scope Note: A subclass of beta-adrenergic receptors (RECEPTORS, ADRENERGIC, BETA). The adrenergic beta-2 receptors are more sensitive to EPINEPHRINE than to NOREPINEPHRINE and have a high affinity for the agonist TERBUTALINE. They are widespread, with clinically important roles in SKELETAL MUSCLE; LIVER; and vascular, bronchial, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary SMOOTH MUSCLE.
