Beta-blockers expand treatment options for infantile hemangiomas
VANCOUVER, B.C. – Propranolol may have revolutionized the treatment of infantile hemangiomas over the past decade, but other beta-blockers are making inroads in the treatment of these and other pediatric dermatologic disorders. One such beta-blocker is atenolol, a hydrophilic cardioselective agent...googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-cta'); (Source: Skin and Allergy News)

Proteomic Analysis of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells with S- and R-Enantiomers of Atenolol by iTRAQ and LC-MS/MS
The term “proteome” was first introduced by referring to the complete determination of proteins expressed in a given cell, tissue, or organism. In HPLC-based proteomics technique, the mixture of the cleaved peptides are bonded, separated sequentially on the multidimensional columns based on charge or hydrophobicity of the ionized analytes, and then eluted into the MS for identification. Among the developed stable isotope-based quantification methods, iTRAQ has recently gained popularity as its simple iTRAQ labeling procedures and up to eight labeled samples examined in a single experiment.

Benefits of beta blockers in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction: network meta-analysis
Source: BMJ Area: News Beta blockers have been shown in randomised trials to prolong survival, prevent arrhythmia, improve symptoms of heart failure and left ventricular ejection fraction, and control ventricular rate, especially in patients with chronic heart failure. However, controversy exists as to the optimal selection of a particular agent for management of heart failure, as they differ in their selectivity for adrenergic receptors and their effects on the peripheral circulation.   This systematic review and network meta-analysis was conducted of efficacy of different beta- blockers in heart failure to clar...
