Blockade of β-adrenoceptors enhances cAMP signal transduction in vivo

The aim of this study was to determine whether the blockade of β-adrenoceptors would enhance cAMP-mediated signal transduction processes in vivo. The administration of the membrane permeable cAMP analogue, 8-(4-chlorophenylthiol)-cAMP (8-CPT-cAMP, 10 μmol/kg, i.v.) produced an increase in heart rate...
