Fluorescent β-Blockers as Tools to Study Presynaptic Mechanisms of Neurosecretion

Several, if not all adrenergic β-blockers (β-Bs), accumulate progressively inside secretory vesicles in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, and could be considered to be false neurotransmitters. This transmitter effect is most likely unrelated to their ability to block adrenergic receptors,...
