A member asked:
Is there any test available that can be done to test for alpha or beta receptor antibodies?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends which alpha: It depends which alpha or beta receptors and to what. Receptors are typically on cells and there are antibodies to some of them. But you need specific antibodies to specific receptors. There are many different types of such receptors.
