The β(2) adrenergic receptor (β(2)-AR) is a model system for studying the ligand recognition process in G protein-coupled receptors. Fenoterol (FEN) is a β(2)-AR selective agonist that has two centers of chirality and exists as four stereoisomers. Radioligand binding studies

Increasing evidence indicates that the rapid component of delayed rectifier potassium current (I(Kr)) is modulated by α- and β-adrenergic stimulation. However, the role and mechanism regulating I(Kr) through β(2)-adrenoreceptor (β-AR) stimulation in heart failure (HF) are unclear. In the present

Neurokinin A (NKA) induces bronchoconstriction mediated by tachykinin NK(2) receptors in animals and humans, and may be increased in asthma. Because beta(2)-adrenoceptor agonists are the most widely used bronchodilators in asthma, we investigated the effects of the beta(2)-adrenoceptor agonist fenoterol
