Carvedilol Prevents UV-Induced Immunosuppression and Skin Carcinogenesis through a Mechanism Independent of β-Blockade

open access: yesJID Innovations
Exposure to UVR suppresses the immune system, which plays a primary role in skin cancer etiology. The β-blocker carvedilol prevents UV-induced skin cancer, but the mechanism is unknown. This study examined the effects of carvedilol and its enantiomers on

Metabolomic profiling of cellular responses to carvedilol enantiomers in vascular smooth muscle cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Carvedilol is a non-selective β-blocker indicated in the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. Although the differential pharmacological effects of individual Carvedilol enantiomer is supported by preceding studies, the cellular response to each ...

Update on the Pathophysiology, Aetiology and Management of Central Sleep Apnoea

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Central sleep apnoea (CSA) of the periodic breathing type occurs during the transition between wakefulness and stage 1 and 2 non‐REM sleep. In adults at sea level, it occurs most commonly due to advanced heart failure (HF) or chronic opioid use and in ~5% of obstructive sleep apnoea patients initiating CPAP.

Synthesis and Characterization of Carvedilol-Etched Halloysite Nanotubes Composites with Enhanced Drug Solubility and Dissolution Rate

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Carvedilol is a poorly water-soluble drug employed to treat chronic heart failure. In this study, we synthesize new carvedilol-etched halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) composites to enhance solubility and dissolution rate.

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Heart failure medication to prevent cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction: A narrative review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Advances in oncological therapies have improved cancer survival but also have increased the clinical incidence of cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), a spectrum of conditions ranging from subclinical biomarker or strain abnormalities to progressive heart failure and cardiogenic shock.
