Beta-1 receptors are found in the heart, and when stimulated will increase herat rate and cardiac contractility. Beta-2 receptors are found on vascular smooth muscle located in the heart and skeletal muscle, and when they are activated, they dilate and decrease SVR.
When specific receptor types take up too much of this neurotransmitter, it can result in mass cell death and, over time, neurodegeneration results.[vi] Receptors also affect long-term potentiation, the molecular process that results in learning.
