    The document summarizes the types of adrenoreceptors (α1, α2, β1, β2, β3), the organs or tissues they stimulate, and their actions or functions. The α1 receptor stimulates smooth muscle contraction and dilation of the pupillary dilator muscle. The α2 receptor inhibits transmitter release at nerve terminals and stimulates platelet aggregation. The β1 receptor increases heart rate and renal rennin secretion. The β2 receptor relaxes smooth muscle and increases gluconeogenesis. The β3 receptor stimulates lipolysis in adipose tissue.
