Normal resting heart rates range from 60â100 bpm. Bradycardia is defined as a resting heart rate below 60 bpm. However, heart rates from 50 to 60 bpm are common among healthy people and do not necessarily require special attention.achycardia is a fast heart rate, defined as above 100 bpm at rest. Bradycardia is a slow heart rate, defined as below 60 bpm at rest. During sleep a slow heartbeat with rates around 40â50 BPM is common and is considered normal.
The adrenergic receptors (or adrenoceptors) are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are targets of the catecholamines, especially norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline).
Norepinephrine Synthesis and Release. Norepinephrine (NE) is the primary neurotransmitter for postganglionic sympathetic adrenergic nerve s. It is synthesized inside the nerve axon, stored within vesicles, then released by the nerve when an action potential travels down the nerve.
