The alpha1A-adrenoceptor gene is required for the alpha1L-adrenoceptor-mediated response in isolated preparations of the mouse prostate.

British journal of pharmacology - 1 Sept 2008

Gray Kt, Short Jl, Ventura S

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This study investigated whether deletion of the alpha1A-adrenoceptor gene influences contractile responses of mouse prostate to noradrenaline. Responses of mouse prostate to noradrenaline are known to be mediated by alpha1L-adrenoceptors, which are thought to be a functional phenotype of alpha1A-adrenoceptor. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Prostate tissues from alpha1A-adrenoceptor knockout mice...
