Abstract:
:Using selective endothelin (ET) receptor antagonists, we investigated which ET receptor subtypes mediate the changes in blood pressure and hematocrit produced by intraarterial injection of ET-1 in the anesthetized rabbit. In addition, the receptor through which ET-1 stimulates the release of prostacyclin (PGI2) and, hence, inhibits ex vivo platelet aggregation, was identified. FR 139317 (ETA antagonist, 0.6 mg kg-1 min-1 preceded by a loading dose of 3 mg kg-1 i.v.) and PD 145065 (nonselective ETA/ETB antagonist, 0.6 mg kg-1 min-1 preceded by a loading dose of 3 mg kg-1 i.v.) attenuated the ET-1 (1 nmol kg-1 i.a.)-induced rise in mean arterial pressure (MAP) by 89% and 75%, respectively. In contrast to FR 139317, PD 145065 also abolished the initial, transient depressor response brought about by ET-1. ET-1 caused a significant increase in hematocrit 15 min after its injection. PD 145065 caused a significantly greater inhibition of this hemoconcentration than FR 139317. ET-1 inhibited ex vivo platelet aggregation by 96%, measured 5 min after injection of the peptide. PD 145065, but not FR 139317, abolished the antiaggregatory effects of ET-1. Thus, the ET-1-induced vasoconstriction in the anesthetized rabbit is predominantly mediated via the ETA receptor, whereas the depressor and antiaggregatory actions of ET-1 are caused by activation of the ETB receptor. Moreover, activation of both receptor subtypes by ET-1 accounts for the increase in hematocrit produced by ET-1 in vivo.
