Background: It is known that reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is necessary for the signal transduction mechanism of β-adrenergic receptors.Aim: Our aim was to investigate whether antioxidant agent (α)-tocopherol-acid-succinate may reduce the effect of β-mimetic action on β(2)-adrenergic receptor regulated tissues.Methods: Tissue samples were collected from non-pregnant (trachea) and 22-day pregnant (myom...
