Relationships

NOTE: predicates are annotated in Biolink Model (v1.3.0)

Subject Predicate Object
Esmolol DECREASES ACTIVITY OF Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor
Beta-1 Adrenergic Receptor INCREASES ACTIVITY OF Adenylate Cyclase
Adenylate Cyclase INCREASES ABUNDANCE OF 3’,5’-Cyclic Amp
3’,5’-Cyclic Amp POSITIVELY REGULATES Calcium Ion Import
Calcium Ion Import POSITIVELY REGULATES Cardiac Muscle Cell Contraction
Cardiac Muscle Cell Contraction POSITIVELY CORRELATED WITH Atrial Fibrillation

Comment: Esmolol hydrochloride inhibits the beta1 receptors located chiefly in cardiac muscle, but this preferential effect is not absolute and at higher doses it begins to inhibit beta2 receptors located chiefly in the bronchial and vascular musculature.
