A series of 4-substituted phenoxypropanolamines was prepared and examined for beta-adrenoceptor activity. Some of the compounds, especially the [4-[2-[[2-(4-fluorophenyl)ethyl] oxy]ethoxy]phenoxy]propanolamines (14, 15, and 24), showed potent beta 1-blockade with virtually no beta 2-blockade at doses over a 1000 times greater. The compounds also possessed partial agonist activity. Structure-activity relationships are discussed, and conclusions are drawn about the binding sites on beta-adrenoceptors.

The Learning and Associative Memory (LAM) test is a face-name associative memory test created to detect early Alzheimer's disease (AD). In a recent study, it was administered to cognitively healthy individuals with different levels of amyloid-β (Aβ) and tau burden. The key findings for LAM were: 1) selective correlations with Aβ levels, 2) unique discriminatory power between A + and A- individuals, 3) significantly higher areas under the curve in receiver operating curve analysis.

Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a rare entity in children but carries a burden of high mortality and morbidity. Medical treatment of pediatric CHF is largely based on guidelines for the adult population. In contrast to adults, evidence for the efficacy of medications in treating CHF in children is sparse.

Angiotensin II (AngII) regulates cerebral circulation and binds with a similar affinity to AT and AT receptors. Biased AT agonists, such as TRV027, which are able to selectively activate β-arrestin while blocking the G pathway, appear promising as new therapeutics. New pharmacological tools are needed to further explore the impact of biased AT agonists on cells or tissues, such as the cerebral vessels.

Objective: D-Transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) is the most common congenital heart disease requiring surgical correction within the neonatal period. Sinus tachycardia often persists postoperatively, potentially affecting cardiac function. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of the short-acting beta-1-selective beta-blocker esmolol in controlling heart rate in neonatal cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
