More than 15 million people have been affected by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) and it has caused 640 016 deaths as of July 26, 2020. Currently, no effective treatment option is available for COVID‐19 patients. Though many drugs have been proposed, none of them has shown particular efficacy in clinical trials. In this article, the relationship between the Adrenergic system and the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) is focused in COVID‐19 and a vicious circle consisting of the Adrenergic system‐RAAS‐Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)‐severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) (which is referred to as the “ARAS loop”) is proposed. Hyperactivation of the ARAS loop may be the underlying pathophysiological mechanism in COVID‐19, and beta‐adrenergic blockers are proposed as a potential treatment option. Beta‐adrenergic blockers may decrease the SARS‐CoV‐2 cellular entry by decreasing ACE2 receptors expression and cluster of differentiation 147 (CD147) in various cells in the body. Beta‐adrenergic blockers may decrease the morbidity and mortality in COVID‐19 patients by preventing or reducing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and other complications. Retrospective and prospective clinical trials should be conducted to check the validity of the hypothesis. Also see the video abstract here https://youtu.be/uLoy7do5ROo.

β-肾上腺素能阻滞剂作为 COVID-19 患者的潜在治疗方法。

截至 2020 年 7 月 26 日,已有超过 1500 万人受到 2019 年冠状病毒病 (COVID-19) 的影响,并已导致 640 016 人死亡。目前,尚无针对 COVID-19 患者的有效治疗方案。尽管已经提出了许多药物,但没有一种在临床试验中显示出特别的功效。在本文中,肾上腺素能系统与肾素-血管紧张素-醛固酮系统(RAAS)之间的关系重点关注COVID-19以及由肾上腺素能系统-RAAS-血管紧张素转换酶2(ACE2)-严重急性呼吸道疾病组成的恶性循环。提出了冠状病毒 2 型综合征 (SARS-CoV-2)(称为“ARAS 环”)。ARAS 环的过度激活可能是 COVID-19 的潜在病理生理机制,β-肾上腺素能阻滞剂被提议作为一种潜在的治疗选择。β-肾上腺素能阻滞剂可能通过降低体内各种细胞中 ACE2 受体的表达和分化簇 147 (CD147) 来减少 SARS-CoV-2 的细胞进入。β-肾上腺素能阻滞剂可以通过预防或减少急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)和其他并发症来降低 COVID-19 患者的发病率和死亡率。应进行回顾性和前瞻性临床试验来检验假设的有效性。另请参阅此处的视频摘要 https://youtu.be/uLoy7do5ROo。
