Component

Adenylyl cyclase catalytic activity, model specified

Adenylyl cyclase catalytic activity, model specified. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.

8 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

  1. UCP1 expression could be induced by any of the beta-1, beta-2 or beta-3 adrenergic receptor subtypes, but the greatest response came from stimulating all three simultaneously, and beta-3 stimulation did not prevent norepinephrine from further raising adenylyl cyclase activity, suggesting an additive cAMP response.

    experimental_model
    Immortalized mouse brown adipocyte cell lines with selective beta-adrenergic agonists and antagonists
    exposure
    Norepinephrine, the beta-3 selective agonist CL316,243, and subtype-selective antagonists
    limitations
    A cell-line dissection of receptor subtypes. The additive cAMP response indicates the subtypes are not redundant, but these are immortalized cells.
    nutrient_topic
    Cold water immersion research collection; topical membership is not evidence of a direct clinical effect, and a therapeutic exposure is not a dietary intake. · Cold water immersion

    plain_language
    Three different receptors for the same messenger all feed the heat gene, and together they do more than any one alone.

    ### cold-beta-receptors-ucp1 UCP1 expression could be induced by any of the beta-1, beta-2 or beta-3 adrenergic receptor subtypes, but the greatest response came from stimulating all three simultaneously, and beta-3 stimulation did not prevent norepinephrine from further raising adenylyl cyclase activity, suggesting an additive cAMP response.
