Beta 2 adrenergic receptor agonists as a treatment for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Metabolic Health and Disease
MASH is a leading cause of liver transplantation. Here, we investigated formoterol, a long-acting β2 adrenergic receptor agonist (LABA), in MASH. Mice treated with a high-fat diet (HFD) for sixteen weeks developed liver steatosis and were treated with ...

Fluticasone/formoterol combination therapy is as effective as fluticasone/salmeterol in the treatment of asthma, but has a more rapid onset of action: an open-label, randomized study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2011
Background The inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) fluticasone propionate (fluticasone) and the long-acting β2-agonist (LABA) formoterol fumarate (formoterol) are being made available as a combination product (fluticasone/formoterol, flutiform®) in a single ...
