The β-blocker Nebivolol Is a GRK/β-arrestin Biased Agonist [PDF]
, 2013 Nebivolol, a third generation β-adrenoceptor (β-AR) antagonist (β-blocker), causes vasodilation by inducing nitric oxide (NO) production. The mechanism via which nebivolol induces NO production remains unknown, resulting in the genesis of much of the ...

Angiotensin II Subtype 1 Receptor Blockers and Renal Function [PDF]
Archives of Internal Medicine, 2001 Blood pressure reduction is the most significant factor in delaying onset and progression of renal disease. Blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) using angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) delays renal disease progression. More recently, agents that block the RAS by preventing angiotensin II from binding to its subtype 1 receptor ...
