isoproterenol and Hypertension, Malignant

isoproterenol has been researched along with Hypertension, Malignant in 2 studies

Isoproterenol: Isopropyl analog of EPINEPHRINE; beta-sympathomimetic that acts on the heart, bronchi, skeletal muscle, alimentary tract, etc. It is used mainly as bronchodilator and heart stimulant.
isoprenaline : A secondary amino compound that is noradrenaline in which one of the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen is replaced by an isopropyl group. A sympathomimetic acting almost exclusively on beta-adrenergic receptors, it is used (mainly as the hydrochloride salt) as a bronghodilator and heart stimulant for the management of a variety of cardiac disorders.

Hypertension, Malignant: A condition of markedly elevated BLOOD PRESSURE with DIASTOLIC PRESSURE usually greater than 120 mm Hg. Malignant hypertension is characterized by widespread vascular damage, PAPILLEDEMA, retinopathy, HYPERTENSIVE ENCEPHALOPATHY, and renal dysfunction.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The effects of isoproterenol (ISP) and chemical sympathectomy (6-hydroxydopamine treatment) on myocardial beta-receptors were also investigated in 10 and 24 week-old SHRS and WKY to examine the effects of hypertension and aging on receptor regulation."3.68Effects of aging and drugs on myocardial beta-adrenergic receptors in M-SHRSP and SHRSP.
