alpha(2)-Adrenoceptors modulate cardiovascular function by vasoconstriction or dilatation, by central inhibition of sympathetic activity, or by feedback inhibition of norepinephrine release from sympathetic neurons. Despite detailed knowledge about subtype-specific functions of alpha(2)-receptors, the relative contributions of sympathetic vs. non-sympathetic receptors involved in these cardiovascular effects have not been identified. The aim of this study was to define the physiological and pharmacological role of alpha(2A)-adrenoceptors in adrenergic vs. non-adrenergic cells at baseline and during sympathetic stress.
