Potent aquaretic agent. A novel nonpeptide selective vasopressin 2 antagonist (OPC-31260) in men.
Solute-free water diuretics (aquaretics) by antagonizing hydrosmotic vasopressin receptors (V2) may be useful in treating water-retaining diseases. The effects of intravenous administration of a newly developed nonpeptide, selective V2 antagonist, OPC-31260, at doses ranging from 0.017 to 1.0 mg/kg to groups of healthy, normally hydrated men were compared with those of 0.33 mg/kg furosemide and...
متن کاملLong-term effects of nonpeptide vasopressin V2 antagonist OPC-31260 in heart failure in the rat.
The hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) contributes to water retention and vasoconstriction in congestive heart failure (CHF) through effects at the V2 and V1a receptors, respectively. The effect of long-term V2 receptor (V2R) blockade using OPC-31260 was assessed in a rat model of postinfarction-induced CHF. Rats underwent coronary artery ligation or sham operation and were treated for 6 mo wit...
متن کاملLong-term aquaretic efficacy of a selective nonpeptide V(2)-vasopressin receptor antagonist, SR121463, in cirrhotic rats.
Water retention in experimental cirrhosis can be reversed by blocking V(2)-vasopressin (AVP) receptors with the nonpeptide antagonist OPC-31260 or by using the kappa-opioid receptor agonist niravoline, a compound inhibiting central AVP release. However, reluctance to use these drugs in human beings has emerged because the former loses aquaretic efficacy in rats after 2 days of treatment and the...
متن کاملCharacterization of SR 121463A, a highly potent and selective, orally active vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist.
SR 121463A, a potent and selective, orally active, nonpeptide vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, has been characterized in several in vitro and in vivo models. This compound displayed highly competitive and selective affinity for V2 receptors in rat, bovine and human kidney (0.6 < or = Ki [nM] < or = 4.1). In this latter preparation, SR 121463A potently antagonized arginine vasopressin (AVP)-s...
متن کاملRenal water handling in rats with decompensated liver cirrhosis.
The present study was performed to investigate the renal handling of water in rats with decompensated liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis was induced by intraperitoneal administration of carbon tetrachloride twice weekly for 16 wk. Control rats were treated with vehicle. The cirrhotic rats developed severe disturbances in water homeostasis: urine production was decreased and hyperosmotic, the rats...
