The effects of FR139317 on the cardiovascular system were investigated in cultured cells, isolated organs and whole animals. FR139317 inhibited the specific binding of [125]endothelin(ET)-1 to porcine aortic microsomes in a concentration-dependent, monophasic fashion with an IC50 of 0.53 nM. In contrast, FR139317 showed low affinity for [125I]ET-1 specific binding sites in porcine kidney (IC50, 4.7 microM). In isolated rabbit aorta, FR139317 shifted the ET-1-induced concentration-contractile response curve to the right with a pA2 value of 7.2 and lacked agonist activity. A single (i.v.) bolus dose of FR139317 completely inhibited the pressor response to ET-1 in vivo, but had no effect on the initial depressor response in conscious normotensive rats. These data indicate that FR139317 is a potent, highly specific ETA receptor antagonist. In addition, FR139317 also inhibited ET-1 induced [3H]thymidine incorporation in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells from rat aorta (IC50, 4.1 nM), suggesting that ET-1-induced mitogenesis is mediated only by the ETA receptor. FR139317 could become a useful tool for investigating the physiological and pharmacological actions of ET.
