Descriptor English: Receptors, Adrenergic, beta-2
Descriptor Spanish: Receptores Adrenérgicos beta 2
Descriptor receptores adrenérgicos beta-2
Entry term(s) receptores beta-2 adrenérgicos
Scope note: Subclase de receptores beta-adrenérgicos (RECEPTORES ADRENÉRGICOS BETA). Los receptores adrenérgicos beta son más sensibles a la epinefrina que a la norepinefrina y poseen una elevada afinidad por el agonista terbutalina. Están ampliamente distribuidos y juegan papeles importantes en el músculo esquelético, el hígado, y la musculatura lisa vascular, bronquial, gastrointestinal y genito-urinaria.

Scope note: A subclass of beta-adrenergic receptors (RECEPTORS, ADRENERGIC, BETA). The adrenergic beta-2 receptors are more sensitive to EPINEPHRINE than to NOREPINEPHRINE and have a high affinity for the agonist TERBUTALINE. They are widespread, with clinically important roles in SKELETAL MUSCLE; LIVER; and vascular, bronchial, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary SMOOTH MUSCLE.
