Adrenal medullary stress hormone, mediator of the fight-or-flight response; and the primary neurotransmitter in the post-ganglionic sympathetic (adrenergic) nervous system.
Pathological remodeling of the myocardium has long been known to involve oxidant signaling, but strategies using systemic antioxidants have generally failed to prevent it. We sought to identify key regulators of oxidant-mediated cardiac hypertrophy amenable to targeted pharmacological therapy. Specific

Development of combination therapies has received significant interest in recent years. Previously, a two-receptor one-transducer (2R-1T) model was proposed to characterize drug interactions with two receptors that lead to the same phenotypic response through a common transducer pathway. We applied
Excessive renal efferent sympathetic nerve activity contributes to hypertension in many circumstances. Although both hemodynamic and tubular effects likely participate, most evidence supports a major role for α-adrenergic receptors in mediating the direct epithelial stimulation of sodium retention. Recently, it
Noise generated by instruments, such as mastoid or craniotomy drills, may cause hearing damage by reducing the cochlear blood flow (CoBF). This study investigated whether dexmedetomidine can lessen noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in a guinea pig model. Animal study using
Early diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains a challenge to date. New evidence highlights the potential clinical value of circulating trace amines (TAs) in early-stage PD and their involvement in disease progression. A new ultra performance chromatography mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS)
