1. -adrenergic agonist. β1-Adrenergic receptor agonists, also known as beta-1 agonists, are a class of drugs that bind selectively to the β 1 -adrenergic receptor. As a result, they act more selectively upon the heart. β-Adrenoceptors typically bind to norepinephrine release by sympathetic adrenergic nerves and to circulating epinephrine.
Beta-blockade of the β 1 receptor will inhibit cAMP from phosphorylating, and it will decrease the ionotrophic and chronotropic effect. Note that drugs may be cardioselective, or act on β 1 receptors in the heart only, but still have instrinsic sympathomimetic activity. Acebutolol (has intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, ISA) [80] Atenolol [80]
Beta-1 adrenergic receptor. The beta-1 adrenergic receptor (β 1 adrenoceptor), also known as ADRB1, can refer to either the protein-encoding gene (gene ADRB1) or one of the four adrenergic receptors. [ 5 ] It is a G-protein coupled receptor associated with the Gs heterotrimeric G-protein that is expressed predominantly in cardiac tissue.
Bisoprolol. Bisoprolol, sold under the brand name Zebeta among others, is a beta blocker which is selective for the beta-1 receptor [ 7 ] and used for cardiovascular diseases, [ 7 ] including tachyarrhythmias, high blood pressure, angina, and heart failure. [ 7 ][ 8 ] It is taken by mouth. [ 7 ]
Adrenergic blocking agent. Adrenergic blocking agents are a class of drugs that exhibit its pharmacological action through inhibiting the action of the sympathetic nervous system [1] in the body. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is an autonomic nervous system that we cannot control by will. It triggers a series of responses after the body ...
Beta-adrenergic agonist. Beta adrenergic agonists or beta agonists are medications that relax muscles of the airways, causing widening of the airways and resulting in easier breathing. [1] They are a class of sympathomimetic agents, each acting upon the beta adrenoceptors. [2] In general, pure beta-adrenergic agonists have the opposite function ...
Metoprolol is a beta blocker, or an antagonist of the β-adrenergic receptors. It is specifically a selective antagonist of the β 1 -adrenergic receptor and has no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity. [37] Metoprolol exerts its effects by blocking the action of certain neurotransmitters, specifically adrenaline and noradrenaline.
Betaxolol is a selective beta 1 receptor blocker used in the treatment of hypertension and angina. [1] It is also a adrenergic blocker with no partial agonist action and minimal membrane stabilizing activity. [2] Being selective for beta 1 receptors, it typically has fewer systemic side effects than non-selective beta-blockers, for example, not ...
