Cardiac beta2 stimulation increases heart rate in humans; extends mechanistic understanding but leaves open clinical translation.
Does intracoronary salbutamol stimulate functional beta 2-adrenoceptors to increase heart rate in humans?
Intracoronary salbutamol demonstrates that direct cardiac beta 2-adrenoceptor stimulation has a positive chronotropic effect in humans.
Hall et al. (1989) studied this question.
