Definition of adrenergic in English:

adrenergic

adjective ˌadrɪˈnəːdʒɪkˌadrəˈnərjik

Physiology

Relating to or denoting nerve cells in which adrenaline, noradrenaline, or a similar substance acts as a neurotransmitter.
Contrasted with cholinergic
Example sentencesExamples
- Neural tissue normally present within the thyroid includes both vasomotor fibers and adrenergic fibers.
- Activation of the adrenergic system triggers the release of catecholamines, which stimulate contractility, heart rate, and blood pressure.
- Both of these are strong sympathetic stimulants which in turn may increase warmth by stimulating the secretion of adrenergic hormones such as testosterone.
- Following alarm or injury, the sympathetic nervous system is activated, adrenergic receptors are stimulated, and the contents of the gland are released to the surface of the skin.
- Table 1 demonstrates the ability of these agents to block histaminic, adrenergic, and muscarinic receptors after being corrected for clinical dose.

Origin

1930s: from adrenaline + Greek ergon 'work' + -ic.
