F 15845, A New Blocker Of The Persistent Sodium Current Prevents Consequences Of Hypoxia In Rat Femoral Artery
BRITISH JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY(2010)
摘要
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSEThe persistent sodium current is involved in myocardial ischaemia and is selectively inhibited by the newly described 3-(R)-[3-(2-methoxyphenylthio-2-(S)-methylpropyl]amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,5-benzoxathiepine bromhydrate (F 15845). Here, we describe the pharmacological profile of F 15845 against the effects of hypoxia in femoral arteries in vitro.EXPERIMENTAL APPROACHIsometric tension measurement of rat isolated femoral arteries was used to characterize the protective effect of F 15845 against contraction of the vessels induced by veratrine (100 mu g center dot mL-1) or hypoxia.KEY RESULTSRat femoral artery expressed the Na(v)1.5 channel isoform. When exposed to veratrine (100 mu g center dot mL-1), vessels developed a rapid and strong contraction that was abolished by both absence of sodium and blockade of the Na+/Ca++ exchanger by KB-R7943 (10 and 32 mu mol center dot L-1) or treatment with F 15845. When used before veratrine exposure, the potency of F 15845 depended on the extracellular K+ concentration (IC(50) = 11 and 0.77 mu mol center dot L-1 for 5 and 20 mmol center dot L-1 KCl, respectively), whereas its potency was unaffected by extracellular K+ concentration when given after veratrine. F 15845 did not affect either KCl (80 mmol center dot L-1) or phenylephrine-induced femoral artery contraction. Moreover, endothelium disruption did not affect the protective effect of F 15845 against veratrine-induced femoral artery contraction, suggesting a mechanism of action dependent on smooth muscle cells. Finally, F 15845 prevented in a concentration-dependent manner rat femoral artery contraction induced by hypoxia.CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONSF 15845, a selective blocker of the persistent sodium current prevented vascular contraction induced by hypoxic conditions.
