Effects of B-Blockers on the Sympathetic and Cytokines Storms in Covid-19. by Al-kuraishy, Hayder M., Al-Gareeb, Ali Ismail, Mostafa-Hedeab, Gomaa, Keneth Iceland, Kasozi, Zirintunda, Gerald, Aslam, Akhmed, Allahyani, Mamdouh, Welburn, Susan Christina, Batiha, Gaber El-Saber

“…Interestingly, cutting the bridge between CS and SS by antiinflammatory and anti-adrenergic agents may mitigate complications that are induced by SARS-CoV-2 infection in severely affected Covid-19 patients. The potential mechanisms of SS in Covid-19 are through different pathways such as hypoxia, which activate the central sympathetic center through carotid bodies chemosensory input and induced proinflammatory cytokines, which cross the blood-brain barrier and activation of the sympathetic center. b2-receptors signaling pathway play a crucial role in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, macrophage activation, and B-cells for the production of antibodies with inflammation exacerbation. b-blockers have anti-inflammatory effects through reduction release of pro-inflammatory cytokines with inhibition of NF-kB. …”
