The Beta3 Adrenoreceptor plays an important role in regulating human fatstorage and variants of this receptor are thought to be relevant to diabetes.In addition to the major interest in obesity and diabetes expressed by thepharmaceutical industry increasing numbers of academic groups are attracted bythis general research area. This renewed interest is of course in partstimulated by available financing from industry. It also reflects the growingrealisation that metabolism remains an open frontier little is known aboutadipocyte subpopulations specific markers or endocrine functions. Researchon the 3 adrenoreceptor and discussion about the hypothetical 4 adrenoreceptoris currently stimulating considerable interest which will certainly besatisfied by this volume. The Beta3 Adrenoreceptor will appeal to readers atgraduate and postgraduate levels of all major universities and other researchand education institutes. «
