(n.) One who contends for the prize in public games.
Example Sentences:
(1) alpha 1-Adrenergic agonists, phenylephrine and norfenefrine, did not affect the synthesis.
(2) Data obtained with fenoldopam were corroborated with use of SK&F 38393, another dopamine D1-receptor agonist.
(3) The GABA receptor agonist progabide reduced VCMs and locomotor activity.
(4) This novel mechanism of receptor regulation, named transmodulation, should be distinguished from the reduction in total receptor number caused by the homologous ligand (downregulation) and from the change in affinity produced by the binding of agonists or antagonists to the same receptor site.
(5) Exposure to nanomolar concentrations of saralasin, an Ang II agonist, attenuated the passage of the fluorophores across the monolayers by 50-75%.
(6) The effects of low doses of dihydropyridine (DHP) calcium channel antagonists nimodipine, nifedipine, (-)-R-202-791, and amlodipine, the DHP calcium channel agonist BAY K 8644 were investigated on clonic convulsions to pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) in mice.
(7) The binding to DNA-cellulose of heat-activated [3H]RU486-receptor complexes was slightly decreased (37%) when compared with that of the agonist [3H]R5020-receptor complexes (47%).
(8) These later results suggest that dopamine agonists increase sensorimotor reactivity measured with acoustic startle by acting on sensory rather than motor parts of the reflex arc.
(9) Only methoxyindole acetic acid was detectable after incubation of unstimulated and alpha-adrenergic-agonist-treated pineal glands.
(10) It inhibits platelet and vascular smooth muscle activation by cGMP-dependent attenuation of the agonist-induced rise of intracellular free Ca2+.
(11) The elimination half-life of most beta-agonists is relatively short, and pharmacokinetics are independent of dose and duration of treatment.
(12) Substance P (SP), a relatively non-selective tachykinin receptor agonist, and Septide and Senktide, highly selective NK-1 and NK-3 tachykinin receptor agonists, respectively, were injected intradermally in rats.
(13) Responses of control tissues to an alpha agonist (norepinephrine) were increased at lower temperatures and responses to a beta agonist (isoprenaline) were increased at higher temperatures.
(14) The inhibition of all three agonist responses by 1.1 mM calcium was competitive.
(15) The alpha 2 agonist, clonidine, produced a larger dose-related increase in food intake in lean rats than in the fatty rats.
(16) This stimulation is mediated by one receptor with an apparent affinity of 3.3 X 10(-6) M. The hydroxyl group in the para position on phenylethanolamine was absolutely necessary to obtain an agonist whereas the meta hydroxyl group or the presence of a catechol almost suppressed the activity.
(17) The alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist clonidine is most potent for stimulating Isc.
(18) Moreover, the ribosylation inhibitors converted the glucocorticoid antagonist RU-486 into a potent agonist for cytolysis of L1210 cells.
(19) We have characterized the effects of adenosine, the A1-receptor agonist N6-(L-2-phenylisopropyl)-adenosine (PIA) and the A2-receptor agonist 5'-(N-ethyl)-carboxamido-adenosine (NECA), in isolated human pulmonary vessels.
(20) Long-term treatment with agents that stimulate the beta-receptor (prenalterol and pirbuterol) has not proved to be useful in the treatment of chronic heart failure; moreover, prolonged treatment with beta-agonists (dobutamine and pirbuterol) may adversely affect survival.
