Abstract:
:Alpha adrenergic receptors are identified on basolateral plasma membranes derived from proximal tubular epithelial cells. The density of alpha 2 receptors was over two-fold greater than alpha 1 receptors. The basolateral membranes were devoid of beta receptors. These results support previous demonstrations of alpha adrenergic receptors in rat renal cortex and concur with studies which suggest a limited presence of beta receptors on rat proximal tubules.
