First sentence: The initial identification, of the 2-adrenoceptor was coupled to the discovery of the prejunctional autoreceptor on adrenergic nerve terminals which participates in the negative feedback system controlling norepinephrine release in response to sympathetic nerve activation (for details of the history see Starke, 1977).
