PREVENTING DESENSITIZATION OF RECEPTORS

摘要

Desensitization of receptors that control disease is prevented by inhibiting G-protein receptor kinases. This has applicability, e.g., for patients with heart failure or on a left ventricular heart device or a heart pump after surgery or about to undergo surgery and at high risk for a cardiac event or on an opiate or addicted to opiate or with cystic fibrosis or rheumatoid arthritis.
