Relationships

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

Subject Predicate Object
Midodrine HAS METABOLITE Deglymidodrine
Deglymidodrine INCREASES ACTIVITY OF Alpha-1A Adrenergic Receptor
Deglymidodrine INCREASES ACTIVITY OF Alpha-1B Adrenergic Receptor
Alpha-1A Adrenergic Receptor POSITIVELY REGULATES Smooth Muscle Contraction
Alpha-1B Adrenergic Receptor POSITIVELY REGULATES Smooth Muscle Contraction
Smooth Muscle Contraction POSITIVELY REGULATES Increased Blood Pressure
Increased Blood Pressure NEGATIVELY CORRELATED WITH Orthostatic Hypotension

Comment: Midodrine is a prodrug, i.e., the therapeutic effect of orally administered midodrine is due to the major metabolite desglymidodrine
