abstract：:Agmatine (decarboxylated arginine) has been proposed as an endogenous ligand for non-adrenoceptor, imidazoline binding sites, but also binds to alpha 2-adrenoceptors. The interaction of agmatine with alpha 2-adrenoceptors was evaluated by studying the effect of agmatine on the firing rate of locus coeruleus (LC) neuro...
