In humans, there are four types of adenosine receptors. Each is encoded by a separate gene and has different functions, although with some overlap. For instance, both A1 receptors and A2A play roles in the heart, regulating myocardial oxygen consumption and coronary blood flow, while the A2A receptor also has broader anti-inflammatory effects throughout the body.These two receptors also have important roles in the brain,regulating the release of other neurotransmitterssuch as dopamine and glutamate, while the A2B and A3 receptors are located mainly peripherally and are involved in processes such as inflammation and immune responses.

How are these heart structures organized?
the heart's structure is organized into four chambers. that allow the heart to carry both oxygenated and un-oxygenated blood from the body without mixing the two types of blood.

What are three types of receptors?
There are four different types of receptors in the skin. There are merkel receptors, meissner corpuscles, ruffini cylinders and pacinian corpuscles.
What are beta-1 receptors found?
There are at lest 3 types of beta receptors and they are found in different organs. Beta-1 (β1) receptors are found in the heart, eye, and kidneys while beta (β2) receptors are found in the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, liver, uterus, blood vessels, and skeletal muscle. The third type, beta (β3) receptors are found in fat cells.
What are your serotonin receptors?
5-HT receptors are the receptors for serotonin. They are located on the cell membrane of nerve cells and other cell types in animals.

Extracellular membrane receptors are used by which types of hormones?
eicosanoids
What are light receptors?
Light receptors are found in the eye. There are two types of receptors; rods and cones. Rods produce the black and white pigments and the Cones produce the color pigments.
The human tongue has many receptors specialized for?
The tongue's receptors are taste buds. They are specialized to detect flavors, and are divided into two types, sweet and bitter receptors. They can detect perceptions of flavors in five types; salty, sweet, bitter, sour, and umani (savory).
The two types of receptors that bind acetylcholine are?
nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR, also known as "ionotropic" acetylcholine receptors) are particularly responsive to nicotinemuscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR, also known as "metabotropic" acetylcholine receptors) are particularly responsive to muscarine.Nicotinic and muscarinic are two main kinds of "cholinergic" receptors.
Which component of the eye contains visual receptors?
The eye's visual receptors reside within the retina. The eye's visual receptors consist of four different types of receptors including rods, blue cones, red cones and green cones.
