Abstract:
:The pharmacologic profile of Ib, 5-n-butyl-4-{4-[2-(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]phenylmethyl}-2,4-dihydro-2-(2,6-dichloridephenyl)-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, a novel nonpeptide angiotensin AT(1) receptor antagonist, was investigated by receptor-binding studies, functional in vitro assays with rabbit and rat aorta, and in vivo experiments in rats. Ib inhibited [(125)I] angiotensin II binding to AT(1) receptors in rat liver membranes (K(i)=2.5+/-0.5 nM) and did not interact with AT(2) receptors in bovine cerebellar membranes. In functional studies with rat and rabbit aorta, Ib inhibited the contractile response to angiotensin II (pD(2)' value: 7.43 and 7.29, respectively) with a significant reduction in the maximum. In pithed rats, Ib inhibited the angiotensin II induced pressor response in a dose-related manner. After intravenous administration, Ib produced a dose-dependent antihypertensive effects in spontaneously hypertensive rats and renal hypertensive rats. These results suggest that Ib is a potent angiotensin AT(1) selective receptor antagonist with a mode of insurmountable antagonism.
