We recently showed that the β3-adrenoreceptor (β3AR) is expressed in mouse kidney collecting ducts (CD) cells along with the type-2 vasopressin receptor (AVPR2). Interestingly, a single injection of a β3AR selective agonist promotes a potent antidiuretic effect in mice. Before considering the feasibility of chronic β3AR agonism to induce antidiuresis in vivo, we aimed to evaluate in vitro the signaling and desensitization profiles of human β3AR.

Abstract
We recently showed that the β3-adrenoreceptor (β3AR) is expressed in mouse kidney collecting ducts (CD) cells along with the type-2 vasopressin receptor (AVPR2). Interestingly, a single injection of a β3AR selective agonist promotes a potent antidiuretic effect in mice. Before considering the feasibility of chronic β3AR agonism to induce antidiuresis in vivo, we aimed to evaluate in vitro the signaling and desensitization profiles of human β3AR.File in questo prodotto:
