Abstract
Since Ahlquist [1] first proposed the existence of more than one adrenergic receptor, the classification of adrenoceptors has evolved into considerable complexity. Historically, β-adrenergic receptors were subdivided into β1 (e.g., those in the myocardium) and β2 (in smooth muscle and most other sites), reflecting the equipotence of epinephrine and norepinephrine at the former receptor, whereas epinephrine is 10to 50-fold more potent at the latter [2].
