The aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u2010ARs in the wall of rat mesenteric resistance artery (MRA), to establish the relative roles of <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u2010ARs in smooth muscle and other cell types in mediating vasodilatation and to analyse this in relation to the functional pharmacology.<\/jats:p><\/jats:list-item>\n<jats:list-item><jats:p>We first examined the vasodilator <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic>\u2010AR subtype using \u2018subtype\u2010selective\u2019 agonists against the, commonly employed, phenylephrine\u2010induced tone. Concentration\u2010related relaxation was produced by isoprenaline (pEC<jats:sub>50<\/jats:sub>: 7.70\u00b10.1) (<jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub> and <jats:italic>\u03b2<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>).

SR 59230A, CGP 12177 and BRL 37344 caused a parallel rightward shift in the concentration\u2013response curve to phenylephrine indicating competitive <jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\u2010AR antagonism, explaining the false\u2010positive \u2018vasodilator\u2019 action against phenylephrine\u2010induced tone.
