Endothelin-1 receptors in rat tissues: characterization by bosentan, ambrisentan and CI-1020.
The present study aimed to characterize comparatively endothelin-1 (ET-1) receptors in rat tissues by radioligand binding assay using [(125)I]ET-1 and to examine receptor binding after oral administration of bosentan. Significant amount of specific [(125)I]ET-1 binding was detected in the lung, heart, kidney, bladder and cerebral cortex of rats. ET-1, bosentan, ambrisentan, and CI-1020 inhibite...
متن کاملAmbrisentan and tadalafil synergistically relax endothelin-induced contraction of rat pulmonary arteries.
Endothelin receptor antagonists and phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors are used to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension. We tested the hypothesis that a selective endothelin type A receptor antagonist (ambrisentan) and a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor (tadalafil) may act synergistically to relax endothelin-constricted pulmonary arteries. Rat isolated intrapulmonary arterial rings contract...

متن کاملThe endothelin A receptor antagonists PD 156707 (CI-1020) and PD 180988 (CI-1034) reverse the hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in the perinatal lamb.
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is considered an intermediary in the constrictor response of the pulmonary vasculature to hypoxia and, by extension, is assigned a prime role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension. We report here the antihypertensive action in the conscious newborn lamb of two novel endothelin A receptor antagonists, sodium 2-benzo-[1,3]dioxol-5-yl-4- (4-methoxy-phenyl)-4-oxo-3-(3,4,...
متن کاملExpression of endothelin-1, ETA and ETB receptors, and ECE and distribution of endothelin-1 in failing rat heart.
Endothelin (ET)-1 has a positive inotropic effect and induces hypertrophy in cardiomyocytes. We previously reported that the peptide level of ET-1 is increased in the failing heart of rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) and that treatment with an ETA-receptor antagonist greatly improves survival in rats with CHF. However, precise analysis for alteration of the myocardial ET system in the fail...
