Inhibition of biological actions of big endothelin-1 by phosphoramidon.

Abstract:

:Endothelin (ET)-1 and big ET-1 both caused contraction of isolated porcine coronary arteries, but the potency of big ET-1 was 1/100-1/200 that of ET-1. These responses were independent of the vascular endothelium. Phosphoramidon blocked the vasoconstriction caused by 30 nM big ET-1, but was ineffective on the action of 0.3 nM ET-1. Also in vivo, phosphoramidon had no effect on the ET-1-induced pressor actions, but blocked the pressor and airway-contractile responses to big ET-1 in rats and/or guinea pigs. Thus, it is likely that the vascular responses to exogenous big ET-1 are at least in part due to its conversion to ET-1 by a phosphoramidon-sensitive ET converting enzyme(s) in the vascular smooth muscle in vitro and in vivo.
