The alpha-1A adrenergic receptor (α1A adrenoreceptor), also known as ADRA1A, formerly known as the alpha-1C adrenergic receptor[1], is an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor, and also denotes the human gene encoding it.[2]
Contents |
Receptor
There are 3 alpha-1 adrenergic receptor subtypes: alpha-1A, -1B and -1D, all of which signal through the Gq/11 family of G-proteins and different subtypes show different patterns of activation.
Gene
This gene encodes the alpha-1A-adrenergic receptor. Alternative splicing of this gene generates four transcript variants, which encode four different isoforms with distinct C-termini but having similar ligand binding properties.[2]
Antagonists
Alpha-blockers specific for 1A include tamsulosin (in benign prostatic hyperplasia.
