Adrenergic β3 Receptors

The adrenergic β3 receptor (β3-adrenoceptor) is a member of the adrenergic receptor group of G-protein-coupled receptors that also includes α1A, α1B, α1D, α2A, α2B, α2C, β1 and β2. They are located primarily in the small intestine, adipose tissue and vascular endothelium.

The adrenergic β3 receptor (β3-adrenoceptor) is a member of the adrenergic receptor group of G-protein-coupled receptors that also includes α1A, α1B, α1D, α2A, α2B, α2C, β1 and β2. They are located primarily in the small intestine, adipose tissue and vascular endothelium where they are involved in lipolysis, glucose uptake, cardio-inhibition and relaxation of colon, esophagus and bladder. The human β3 receptor gene has been localized to chromosome 8 (8p12-8p11.1).
