- Abstract
We have previously reported that local activation of β2-adrenergic receptors (B2ARs) in the ventromedial hypothalamus (VMH) enhances hypoglycaemic counter-regulation. This study examines whether peripheral delivery of a selective B2AR agonist could also promote counter-regulatory responses and thereby has potential therapeutic value to limit hypoglycaemia risk.
