Factors affecting tracking of coronary heart disease risk factors in children. The Muscatine Study.

abstract：:Although stress is tightly connected with elevated levels of catecholamines, stress effects on target structures of catecholamine action--adrenoceptors (ARs)--has not been deeply studied yet. Similarly, very little is known about changes of muscarinic receptors (MRs) during stress. We determined changes in these recep...
