Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - The ADRA2B gene is located on chromosome 15q21.1. - It is a single-exon gene encoding a protein of 214 amino acids. - It is a member of the adrenoceptor superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. - It is expressed in high levels in the heart, kidney, and gut. **Pathways and functions:** - The ADRA2B gene is involved in the regulation of the sympathetic nervous system. - It is a key regulator of vasoconstriction and vasodilation. - In the heart, it is involved in the regulation of cardiac output, heart rate, and blood pressure. - In the gut, it is involved in the regulation of mucosal blood flow, gastric secretions, and intestinal permeability. - In the immune system, it is involved in the regulation of inflammation and platelet aggregation. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the ADRA2B gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including hypertension, heart failure, stroke, and cancer. - Adrenoceptor agonists, which increase the activity of the ADRA2B receptor, have been used as therapeutic agents in the treatment of these diseases. - Adra2b inhibitors, which decrease the activity of the ADRA2B receptor, have been used as therapeutic agents to treat hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases.
