Contractions induced by [Arg8]vasopressin (vasopressin) and the effect of nonpeptide vasopressin receptor antagonists were studied in the human isolated coronary artery. Vasopressin induced contraction of coronary artery segments with a high pD2 (9.25) but a low Emax (11.8% of the response to 100 mM K+). This response was not affected by removal of the endothelium. Contraction was antagonized by the vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist SR 49059 ((2S) 1-[(2R 3S)-5-chloro-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzene- sulfonyl)-3-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-2-carbonyl]-pyrrolidine-2- carboxamide) (pA2: 9.76). OPC-31260 ([5-dimethylamino-1-(4-(2-methylbenzoylamino)benzoyl)-2,3,4,5-tetr ahydro-1H- benzazepine]: vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist) and OPC-21268 (1-(1-[4-(3-acetylaminopropoxy) benzoyl]-4-piperidyl)-3,4- dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinone: reported vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist) were less potent antagonists of vasopressin-induced contractions (pA2: 7.31 and 5.6, respectively). The antagonist potency order (SR 49059 > OPC-31260 > OPC-21268) corresponds to the reported affinity order for the human cloned vasopressin V1 receptor. Therefore, the vasopressin V1 receptor antagonist SR 49059, but not OPC-21268, appears to be an appropriate tool to investigate further the role of vasopressin in pathological processes involving coronary vasoconstriction in humans.
