GENE - CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS REPORT

RGD ID: 731007
Species: Mus musculus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Ptgs2
Name: prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2
Acc ID: CHEBI:4856
Term: esmolol
Definition: A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-esmolol. A cardioselective and short-acting beta1 receptor blocker with rapid onset but lacking intrinsic sympathomimetic and membrane-stabilising properties, it is used as the hydrochloride salt in the management of supraventricular arrhythmias, and for the control of hypertension and tachycardia during surgery. While the S enantiomer possesses all of the heart rate control, both enantiomers contribute to lowering blood pressure.
Chemical ID: MESH:C036604
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
