Clenbuterol is an agonist of beta2-adrenergic receptors (beta2-ARs). It induces relaxation of equine tracheal muscle strips (EC50 = 2.1 nM). Clenbuterol (300 nM) increases the number of autophagosomes and autophagic flux in HepG2 cells. It increases blood flow to adipose tissue and induces weight gain in rats when...
