ABSTRACT
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) manifests as an acute inflammatory lung injury characterized by persistent hypoxemia, featuring a swift onset, high mortality, and predominantly supportive care as the current therapeutic approach, while effective treatments remain an area of active investigation. Adrenergic receptors (AR) play a pivotal role as stress hormone receptors, extensively participating in various inflammatory processes by initiating downstream signaling pathways. Advancements in molecular biology and pharmacology continually unveil the physiological significance of distinct AR subtypes. Interventions targeting these subtypes have the potential to induce specific alterations in cellular and organismal functions, presenting a promising avenue as a therapeutic target for managing ARDS. This article elucidates the pathogenesis of ARDS and the basic structure and function of AR. It also explores the relationship between AR and ARDS from the perspective of different AR subtypes, aiming to provide new insights for the improvement of ARDS.
