Receptor

There are 3 alpha-1 adrenergic receptor subtypes: alpha-1A, -1B and -1D, all of which signal through the Gq/11 family of G-proteins. Different subtypes show different patterns of activation.

Gene

This gene encodes the alpha-1A-adrenergic receptor. Alternative splicing of this gene generates four transcript variants, which encode four different isoforms with distinct C-termini but having similar ligand binding properties.^[2]

Ligands

Agonists

6-(5-fluoro-2-pyrimidin-5-yl-phenyl)-6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolo[1,2-a]imidazole: EC₅₀ = 1nM, E_max = 65%; good selectivity over α1B, α1D and α2A subtypes^[3]
further partial agonistic imidazole compounds^[4]^[5]

Antagonists

Tamsulosin: for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Silodosin: for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia
