Abstract:
:In the guinea-pig ileum, both sarafotoxin S6c and IRL1620 (Suc-[Glu9,Ala11,15]endothelin-1-(8-21) induced a concentration-dependent biphasic effect (relaxation and contraction), but distinct tachyphylaxis of the tissue. Cross-tachyphylaxis and additivity experiments evidenced distinct receptors for these agonists. BQ-123 (cyclo[D-Trp-D-Asp-Pro-D-Val-Leu]), an endothelin ET(A) receptor antagonist, did not affect the response induced by either agonist. PD145065 [Ac-(D-Bhg-Leu-Asp-Ile-Ile-Trp) (D-Bhg = 5H-dibenzyl[a,d]cycloheptene-10,11-dihydroglycine)], an endothelin ET(A)/ET(B) receptor antagonist, inhibited the contractions induced by IRL1620 and sarafotoxin S6c in competitive and noncompetitive manner, respectively. RES-701-1 [cyclic(Gly1-Asp9)(Gly-Asn-Trp-His-Gly-Thr-Ala-Pro-Asp-Trp-P he-Phe-Asn-Tyr-Tyr-Trp)], an endothelin ET(B1) receptor antagonist, inhibited both components of the response induced by IRL1620, whereas it inhibited mainly the relaxation induced by low sarafotoxin S6c doses. Apamin and suramin had different effects towards the agonists. Our results suggest that two endothelin ET(B) receptors with distinct signal transduction mechanism mediate the biphasic response: (1) the endothelin ET(B1) receptor: sensitive to RES-701-1 and PD145065 and (2) the endothelin ET(B2) receptor: less sensitive to RES-701-1 and PD145065.
