Pathway Description
Nebivolol Action Pathway
Homo sapiens
Drug Action Pathway
Nebivolol (also known as Bystolic or Nebivololum) is a β1-receptor blocker (selective β1-receptor antagonist) that can bind and inhibit Beta-1 adrenergic receptor in muscule and heart. Nebivolol competes with epinephrine or other beta-1 adrenergic receptor activator to bind on the receptor, which can reduce the heart rate and blood pressure that could caused by biniding of epinephrine on receptor. Nebivolol can also prevent release of renin (a hormone from kidneys), which can result in reduced level of constriction of blood vessels.
