Agonist Comments
The species orthologs of the human β-ARs found in the rat, mouse, and cow have significantly different agonist pharmacology that has proved problematic for drug development. For example, BRL37344 is a potent agonist at rodent β3-AR but a weak partial agonist at the human β3-AR [2] and carazolol has a much higher affinity for the bovine receptor [69], whereas [125I]CYP has lower affinity [85]. Carazolol is a potent high efficacy partial agonist at β3-AR but is also a potent partial agonist at β1-AR and a highly potent antagonist at β2-AR [5]. Agonist SB251023 has an pEC50 of 6.9 for the splice variant of the mouse β3 receptor, β3b [43]. For the agonist CL316243, a cAMP accumulation assay measured pEC50 values of 9.94 and 9.97 for the β3a and β3b splice variants respectively [78]. Although the human β3-AR has an intron no splice variants have been observed. The β3-AR has a more important physiological role in rodents than in humans. Since the β3-AR largely lacks sites required for receptor phosphorylation it is less susceptible to desensitisation than other β-AR subtypes. However, desensitisation can occur associated with mRNA and protein down regulation of receptor and post receptor signalling proteins and there is also evidence for cell specific events [66]. Ligands acting at β3-AR can also display ligand-directed signalling [76-77]. Vibegron, solabegron and mirabegron are selective β3-AR agonists that potently activate human β3-AR [45].

Antagonist Comments
Many of the compounds listed as antagonists at the β3-AR can behave in some systems as agonists at the β3-adrenoceptor. These include L748337, SR59230A, carvedilol, nadolol, tertatolol, pindolol and propranolol as well as compounds that exhibit similar behaviour at other β-AR subtypes, notably CGP12177, pindolol, cyanopindolol, labetalol and alprenolol [5,10-11,27,62,89]. The approved drug propranolol is primarily a β1-/β2-AR antagonist with lower affinity for β3-AR. SR59230A that is often described as a selective antagonist at β3-AR displays little selectivity and has similar potency at all 3 subtypes (in fact higher affinity at β2-AR) [5]- what it does have is reasonable potency at blocking β3-AR. L-748337 is currently the most selective antagonist at the human β3-AR [96]. The human β3-AR also appears to exist in two active conformations (see also β1-AR) with fenoterol stimulating responses via the catecholamine formation whereas alprenolol, SR58230A and CGP12177 utilise the secondary conformation [3].
Primary Transduction Mechanisms Click here for help
Transducer Effector/Response
Gs family
Comments:  Agonist stimulated Gs coupling leads to stimulation of adenylyl cyclase (AC) and causes the conversion of ATP into cAMP. This activates protein kinase A (PKA) that in adipocytes leads to phosphorylation and activation of the hormone sensitive lipase and perilipins. Other kinases including ERK1/2, p38MAPK and AMP kinases may also be activated and PKA may be involved. In other tissues such as gut cAMP generation leads to relaxation.

Secondary Transduction Mechanisms Click here for help
Transducer Effector/Response
Gi/Go family Guanylate cyclase stimulation
Comments:  β3-ARs can also couple to Gi to inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity and reduce cAMP levels in some systems. βγ subunits from Gi are also likely involved in ERK1/2 phosphorylation following β3-AR activation. β3-ARs can also stimulate nitric oxide production through the activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase. Nitric oxide activates guanylyl cyclase and increases cGMP levels.

β3-adrenoceptor knockout mice exhibit a complete loss of β3 agonist-induced adenylyl cyclase activity and lipolysis. They also have an increase in fat storage, suggesting that the β3 subtype has a role in energy balance regulation. There appears to be cross-talk between β1 and β3 gene expression, shown by an upregulation of β1 receptor expression in white and brown adipose tissue of knockout mice.
