Disease relevance of penbutolol

  • The effects of penbutolol 20-30 mg twice daily and of metoprolol 50-150 mg three times daily were studied in five and nine patients, respectively, with moderate hypertension [1].
  • Haemodynamic dose-response effects of i.v. penbutolol in angina pectoris [2].
  • 3 Penbutolol proved to be a non-cardioselective beta-adrenoceptor blocking drug, antagonizing exercise-induced tachycardia, reducing exercise-induced increase in PEFR and decreasing PRA [3].
  • The lack of significant bradycardia and the low incidence of other troublesome adverse effects are potential advantages during antihypertensive therapy with penbutolol [4].
  • In the Ames test penbutolol showed significant toxicity above 500 micrograms/plate [5].

Chemical compound and disease context of penbutolol

 

Biological context of penbutolol

  • All derivatives are capable of displacing [3H]BTX-B from its specific binding site, penbutolol displaying the highest affinity [17].
  • The mean systolic pressures of these patients decreased by 21 mm Hg and their mean diastolic pressure decreased by 11 mm Hg during treatment with penbutolol [18].
  • Decline in mean heart rate after 6 weeks of penbutolol therapy significantly exceeded placebo only at 40 mg/day (7.2 vs 2.5 beats/min, p less than 0.05) [4].
  • Decrease in penbutolol protein binding as a consequence of treatment with some alkylating agents [19].
  • Additionally, no significant incorporation of [3H]thymidine into the DNA in the UDS test or formation of DNA-strand breaks in the alkaline elution assay was detected in the non-toxic concentration range of penbutolol with or without metabolic activation [5].
 

Anatomical context of penbutolol

  • 5. The beta-adrenoceptor blocking agent penbutolol was shown to possess adrenergic neurone blocking activity in the isolated vas deferens of the rat [20].
  • Penbutolol resulted in a linear decrease in heart rate (maximum delta HR - 4 beats/min; P less than 0.01); there was a small increase in pulmonary artery occluded pressure which reached its maximum at the lower doses (maximum delta PAOP + 1 mm Hg; P less than 0.01) [2].
  • The haemodynamic dose-response effects of intravenous penbutolol, a newer beta-adrenoceptor antagonist with intrinsic sympathomimetic activity but without cardioselectivity, were evaluated in 10 patients with angiographically documented coronary artery disease [2].
  • Penbutolol was cytotoxic to human fibroblasts and Chinese hamster V79 cells [21].
  • Beta-adrenoceptor binding of (-) penbutolol and its active metabolite 4-hydroxy-penbutolol to rat reticulocyte membranes was shown in the presence of native human plasma [22].
 

Associations of penbutolol with other chemical compounds

 

Gene context of penbutolol

  • The increase in the behavioural deficit induced by 8-OH-DPAT, was likely to have resulted from stimulation of 5-HT1A receptors, since it was impaired by pretreatment with penbutolol, a beta-adrenergic-blocking drug, also known to bind to 5-HT1 receptors [28].
  • The results of the present study demonstrate the absence of genotoxic activity of penbutolol in the 5 strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538) and in the strain of Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA in the presence or absence of metabolic activation [5].
  • Recently, we found that the beta 1/beta 2 adrenoceptor blocking agent (-)penbutolol prevents behavioral and biochemical actions of the specific serotonin (5-HT)1A agonist (+/-)-8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin [23].
  • Local (-)penbutolol (1 microM) perfusion increased the 5-HT output per se, and also blocked 5-HT release suppression caused by the 5-HT1B receptor agonist CP-93,129 [23].
  • The genotoxic potential of the beta-adrenergic blocker penbutolol was assessed using the Ames and HGPRT tests, unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) and alkaline elution assays [5].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of penbutolol

  • As is the case with most other beta-blocking drugs, penbutolol has some specific properties (e.g. relatively narrow dose-response range minimising the difficulty of dose titration, moderate intrinsic sympathomimetic activity) which may be used to advantage in certain patients [29].
  • In vivo microdialysis evidence for central serotonin1A and serotonin1B autoreceptor blocking properties of the beta adrenoceptor antagonist (-)penbutolol [23].
  • 5 Comparison of plasma levels and biological activity of penbutolol revealed that after oral administration this drug is transformed into an active metabolite in man [3].
  • Subjects were randomly administered penbutolol, propranolol L.A. and placebo according to a double-blind, three-part cross-over design [6].
  • Determination of penbutolol and its hydroxylated metabolite in biological fluids by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography [30].
