Biological Activity

Description Atenolol (Tenormin, Normiten, Blokium) is a selective β1 receptor antagonist with log Kd values of −6.66±0.05, −5.99±0.14, −4.11±0.07 for binding to the human β1-, β2- and β3-adrenoceptors.
Targets
β1 receptor [1]
(Cell-free assay)
β2 receptor [1]
(Cell-free assay)
0.25 μM(Kd) 1 μM(Kd)
In vivo In clinical pharmacokinetics studies, atenolol is a hydrophilic betareceptor blocking drug, which is predominantly eliminated via the kidneys, only about 5% of the atenolol is metabolised by the liver. After oral administration atenolol is incompletely absorbed from the intestine, so about 50% of the beta blocker are finally biovailable. In plasma only 3% of atenolol are protein-bound. After oral administration elimination half life of atenolol is calculated from 6 to 9 h. There exists a linear relationship between the atenolol plasma levels and the degree of beta blocking effect measured by inhibition of the exercise-induced tachycardia while no correlation is found between plasma levels of atenolol and blood pressure lowering activity of the drug[3].
