Age-related changes in beta-adrenoceptors of lymphocytes.
The density of adrenoceptors (Bmax) is greater on B than on T splenocytes. It decreases more or less rapidly on membranes of both populations, as animals age. The exception, we have observed in this respect, is an increase in Bmax on B cells of SJL mice, between the 6th and 25th week of life.
