Endothelin Receptor

Endothelin receptors are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) of the β-group of rhodopsin receptors that bind to endothelin ligands, which are 21 amino acid long peptides derived from longer prepro-endothelin precursors. There are at least four types known, ETA, ETB (ETB1, ETB2) and ETC. The ETA receptor is characterized by having high affinity and selectivity for ET-1 and ET-2 compared to ET-3, whereas the ETB receptor has equivalent high affinity for all three endothelin isopeptides.

Endothelins are synthesized in several tissues, including the vascular endothelium (ET-1 exclusively) and smooth muscle cells. Released endothelin binds to the endothelin receptors ETA and ETB, the ETA receptors on vascular smooth muscle cells mediating vasoconstriction, and the ETB receptors on the endothelium linked to nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin release.

    SB-209670
    Antagonist
    SB-209670 is an extremely potent and highly specific non-peptide, subnanomolar endothelin (ET) receptor antagonist. SB 209670 selectively inhibits binding of 125I-labeled ET-1 to cloned human ET receptor subtypes ETA and ETB (Ki=0.2 and 18 nM, respectively). SB 209670 produces a dose-dependent reduction in blood pressure in hypertensive rats, protects from ischemia-induced neuronal degeneration in a gerbil stroke model, and attenuates neointima formation following rat carotid artery balloon angioplasty.

    Aselacin A
    Antagonist
    Aselacin A targets endothelin-1 receptor (ET-1 receptor), inhibits the the binding of ET-1 to ETA receptor and ETB receptor. Aselacin A inhibits the ET-1 binding to bovine atrial membrane and porcine cerebral membrane with IC50 of 22 μg/mL and 20 μg/mL. Aselacin A can be used for research of cardiovascular diseases.
