Adrenoceptor-mediated responses in human skin studied by iontophoresis.
The adrenoceptor-mediated responses in human skin (blanching and erythema) were studied by an iontophoretic technique. It is concluded that the receptors in superficial dermal blood vessels belong to the subclasses alpha 1 and beta 2.
