I3 Receptors
Imidazoline 3 receptors (I3) are members of the imidazoline receptor family, which also include I1 (labeled by clonidine) and I2 (labeled by idazoxan). I3 receptors are located in the pancreatic β-cells and are able to stimulate insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner.
We are sorry, but we currently do not have any I3 Receptor products at this time. Please feel free to send us your requirements via our New Product Suggestions form.
Imidazoline 3 receptors (I3) are members of the imidazoline family of receptors, which also include I1 (labeled by clonidine) and I2 (labeled by idazoxan). I3 receptors are located in the pancreatic β-cells and are able to stimulate insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner. This is accompanied by inhibition of ATP-sensitive K+ channels.
Little is known about the transduction mechanism of I3 receptors and the gene encoding it has not yet been characterized.
