propranolol and Sleep Apnea Syndromes

propranolol has been researched along with Sleep Apnea Syndromes in 5 studies

Propranolol: A widely used non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic antagonist. Propranolol has been used for MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; ARRHYTHMIA; ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; HYPERTHYROIDISM; MIGRAINE; PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA; and ANXIETY but adverse effects instigate replacement by newer drugs.
propranolol : A propanolamine that is propan-2-ol substituted by a propan-2-ylamino group at position 1 and a naphthalen-1-yloxy group at position 3.

Sleep Apnea Syndromes: Disorders characterized by multiple cessations of respirations during sleep that induce partial arousals and interfere with the maintenance of sleep. Sleep apnea syndromes are divided into central (see SLEEP APNEA, CENTRAL), obstructive (see SLEEP APNEA, OBSTRUCTIVE), and mixed central-obstructive types.

"The findings indicate that sleep apnea is associated with a diminished beta 2-adrenergic receptor function but no change in postreceptor components and suggest a mechanism for the high comorbidity between sleep apnea and hypertension."1.29Beta 2-adrenergic receptor characteristics in sleep apnea patients. ( Ancoli-Israel, S; Clausen, JL; Coy, TV; Dimsdale, JE; Mills, PJ; Nelesen, RA, 1995)
