The response by your body is sometimes called the âfight or flightâ response. Adrenergic drugs stimulate the same nerves by either mimicking the action of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine or stimulating its release. They are used for many life-threatening conditions.
Î² adrenergic receptor binding triggers glucagon secretion in the pancreas, increased adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) secretion by the pituitary gland, and increased lipolysis by adipose tissue. Together, these effects lead to increased blood glucose and fatty acids, providing substrates for energy production within cells throughout the body.
