Gene Name ADRB1
Uniprot ID ADRB1_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:153
Protein Family G-protein coupled receptor 1 family
Protein Function
Beta-adrenergic receptors mediate the catecholamine-induced activation of adenylate cyclase through the action of G proteins. This receptor binds epinephrine and norepinephrine with approximately equal affinity. Mediates Ras activation through G(s)-alpha- and cAMP-mediated signaling. Involved in the regulation of sleep/wake behaviors (PubMed:31473062).

Recommended Action
      Management It is currently recommended that beta blocker therapy not be routinely withdrawn prior to surgery. However, in general, patients taking beta blockers should not be anaesthetized with methoxyflurane. Instead, an anesthetic with minimal negative inotropic activity may be considered. If methoxyflurane must be used, beta blocker therapy should be withdrawn gradually and generally completed 24 to 48 hours before anesthesia.
