The alpha-2C adrenergic receptor (α_2C adrenoceptor), also known as ADRA2C, is an alpha-2 adrenergic receptor, and also denotes the human gene encoding it.^[5]

Receptor

Alpha-2-adrenergic receptors include 3 highly homologous subtypes: alpha_2A, alpha_2B, and alpha_2C. These receptors have a critical role in regulating neurotransmitter release from sympathetic nerves and from adrenergic neurons in the central nervous system. Studies in mice revealed that both the alpha_2A and alpha_2C subtypes were required for normal presynaptic control of transmitter release from sympathetic nerves in the heart and from central noradrenergic neurons; the alpha_2A subtype inhibited transmitter release at high stimulation frequencies, whereas the alpha_2C subtype modulated neurotransmission at lower levels of nerve activity.^[6]

Gene

This gene encodes the alpha2C subtype, which contains no introns in either its coding or untranslated sequences.^[5]
