GRK2 blockade with βARKct is essential for cardiac β(2)-adrenergic receptor signaling towards increased contractility

BACKGROUND: β(1)- and β(2)–adrenergic receptors (ARs) play distinct roles in the heart, e.g. β(1)AR is pro-contractile and pro-apoptotic but β(2)AR anti-apoptotic and only weakly pro-contractile. G protein coupled receptor kinase (GRK)-2 desensitizes and opposes βAR pro-contractile signaling by phos...
