“Our results show that different β-blockers have differential effects on whole-cell currents and free Ca2+i release and that propranolol activates store-operated Ca2+i release via a mechanism that involves calcium-induced calcium release and putative downstream transducers such as IP3.”

“ Propranolol decreased the serum level of calcium through decreasing triiodothyronine level and through beta-receptor blocking effect as well as its direct effect on bone.”
“An increment of intracoronary Ca by 1.5mmol/1 enhanced the left ventricular contractility indexEmax (end-systolic maximum elastance) by 2.5 times before and after β-blockade with propranolol.”
“Other experiments demonstrated that propranolol can enhance coronary arterial membrane permeability to calcium ions ; these observations suggest that propranolol might sensitize coronary vascular smooth muscle cells to calcium ions.”
“ Propranolol pretreatment (three days prior to the experiments) significantly reduced the myocardial enzyme release during calcium repletion in the minimal calcium paradox.”
“In skinned coronary arteries, Ca2+ -activated tension development was decreased by betaxolol and propranolol at concentrations of more than 10−5 and 10−4 M, respectively.”

“On the other hand, shivering activity measured at 4° C was less in CA than in WA, while propranolol administration eliminated the difference between these two groups by enhancing shivering in CA.”
