Beta-2 adrenergic receptors (β2-ARs) have important roles in the pathogenesis and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In recent years, progress has been made in the study of β2-ARs. Here, we introduce the basic concepts of β2-ARs, related pathways, as well as application of blockers/agonists of β2-ARs, and β2-AR autoantibodies in COPD. Drugs targeting the β2-AR are being developed rapidly, and we expect them to improve the symptoms and prognosis of COPD patients in the future.
