Identifying Ligand Binding Conformations of the β2-Adrenergic Receptor by Using Its Agonists as Computational Probes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recently available G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) structures and biophysical studies suggest that the difference between the effects of various agonists and antagonists cannot be explained by single structures alone, but rather that the conformational

Light‐Based Molecular Tools to Precisely Monitor and Operate β‐Adrenoceptors

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 445-474, March 2026.
ABSTRACT β‐Adrenoceptors are important G protein–coupled receptors involved in cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological regulation. To study their function with high precision, light‐based molecular tools have been developed offering precise spatiotemporal control.

Combination formoterol and budesonide as maintenance and reliever therapy versus inhaled steroid maintenance for chronic asthma in adults and children (Review) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Traditionally inhaled treatment for asthma has been considered as preventer and reliever therapy. The combination of formoterol and budesonide in a single inhaler introduces the possibility of using a single inhaler for both prevention and ...

The Impact of COVID‐19 on Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases: A Narrative Review of Long‐Term Consequences and Vaccination Strategies

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims The COVID‐19 pandemic has posed significant challenges for individuals with obstructive pulmonary diseases (OPDs), such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Emerging evidence highlights the complex interplay between SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and OPDs, including increased risks of severe disease, long‐term ...

Comparing the Molecular Pharmacological Properties of Existing β‐Blockers to Determine the Theoretically Most “Ideal” Anti‐Cancer β‐Blocker

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT There is increasing evidence, from cellular, animal and human epidemiological studies, linking β‐blockers with reductions in cancer growth and metastasis. Propranolol is the most investigated β‐blocker for cancer; although as many different off‐patent β‐blockers exist, there is little commercial incentive to drive comparative clinical trials ...

Inhalation of β2 agonists impairs the clearance of nontypable Haemophilus influenzae from the murine respiratory tract

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2006
Background Nontypable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHi) is a common bacterial pathogen causing human respiratory tract infections under permissive conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Efficacy of salmeterol and magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate combination treatment in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The most classic treatment recommended in the current chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) guidelines is glucocorticoid and β2 receptor agonist combination, such as salmeterol xinafoate and fluticasone propionate (Sal/Flu), causing many adverse ...

Single-inhaler fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol versus fluticasone furoate/vilanterol plus umeclidinium using two inhalers for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A randomized non-inferiority study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Single-inhaler fluticasone furoate/umeclidinium/vilanterol (FF/UMEC/VI) 100/62.5/25 μg has been shown to improve lung function and health status, and reduce exacerbations, versus budesonide/formoterol in patients with chronic obstructive ...

The biology of PKM2 in the metabolism and senescence in diabetic kidney disease

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 197-204, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is one of the most common causes of chronic kidney disease that leads to end‐stage kidney disease, and its progression is closely linked to metabolic stress within renal tubular cells. Under long‐term hyperglycemia, cells shift their glucose metabolism from normal oxidative phosphorylation toward glycolysis.
