Abstract excerpt
The predominating β-adrenergic receptor subtype expressed on human alveolar tissue is the β2AR The homozygous arginine (Arg16Arg) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at codon 16 of the β2AR gene has been associated with abnormal β2AR function accompanied by decreased resting alveolar-capillary membrane gas-transfer in certain healthy adults. Although not previously studied in the context of the β2AR gene,...
