α-1
NE binds to α-1 = vasoconstriction (high BP) Gq: increases Ca2+ release
α-2
binds to epinephrine or norepinephrine and inhibits to reduce sympathetic activity (Gi)
β-1
binds to NE and E which then increases HR (positive chronotropic) and contraction (positive ionotropic)
β-2
β-2 binds to E = vasodilation
μ-1
Gq pathway increases Ca2+ signaling (neuronal activity and gastric acid secretion)
μ-2
Slows heart rate by binding to ACh and decreasing cAMP
μ-3
vasoconstriction, exception (NO created in vascular endothelium = vasodilation)
