ABSTRACT:In a patient with pure autonomic failure, exercise did not modify beta-adrenoceptor density, probably due to an insufficient increase in plasma catecholamines. Isoproterenol infusion increased the number of beta-adrenoceptor by only 17%. Since in control subjects an increased beta-adrenoceptor level was found, following both physical stress and isoproterenol infusion, we suggest that the lack of increased beta-adrenoceptor levels may contribute to the poor circulatory adjustments observed in autonomic dysfunction during activities involving the sympathetic nervous system.
