Alloimmunization-induced changes in β-adrenoceptor expression and cAMP on B lymphocytes

In this report we have examined the effect of alloimmunization on β-adrenergic expression in lymphocytes. We have observed a variation in the number of β-adrenoceptors (Bmax) according to the degree of immunization without modifications in their affinity (Kd). This phenomenon was accompanied with pa...
