Title: Effect of urapidil on beta-adrenoceptors of rat atria. Author: Verberne AJ, Rand MJ. Journal: Eur J Pharmacol; 1985 Jan 22; 108(2):193-6. PubMed ID: 2984023. Abstract: The effects of the antihypertensive drug urapidil were studied on chronotropic responses to isoprenaline in rat isolated atria. Urapidil (1-30 microM) antagonized the responses to isoprenaline competitively, and the pA2 value was 6.05. Thus, in addition to its alpha 1-adrenoceptor blocking action for which the pA2 value is about 7, urapidil has beta-adrenoceptor blocking activity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
