Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The actions of adrenergic agents on the intracellular production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (AMP) was examined in intact cortical and striatal neurons in primary culture, generated from the fetal mouse brain. Exposure of striatal neurons to the β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (10 μM) resulted in a 5-fold increase in intraneuronal cyclic AMP; norepinephrine (100 μM), alone or in combination with isoproterenol, produced only a 3-fold increase in cyclic AMP levels. However, in the presence of yohimbine (10 μM), cyclic AMP productions due to norepinephrine or isoproterenol plus norepinephrine were identical to isoproterenol alone. When striatal or cortical neurons were exposed to pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml) overnight, there was no detectable difference between isoproterenol- and norepinephrine-stimulated cyclic AMP production. These data suggest that α2-adrenergic receptors mediate the attenuation of cyclic AMP production in neurons and do so via the inhibitory guanine nucleotide regulatory protein of adenylate cyclase.
