http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/18567602http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"The available treatment strategies against pulmonary hypertension include the administration of endothelin-1 (ET-1) receptor subtype blockers (ET(A) and ET(B) antagonists); vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) has recently been suggested as a potential new therapeutic agent. We set out to investigate the ability of these agents to protect against the vasoconstriction and impairment of lung function commonly observed in patients with pulmonary hypertension. An ET(A) blocker (BQ123), ET(B) blocker (BQ788), a combination of these selective blockers (ET(A) + ET(B) blockers) or VIP (V6130) was administered into the pulmonary circulation in four groups of perfused normal rat lungs. Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and forced oscillatory lung input impedance (Z(L)) were measured in all groups under baseline conditions and at 1 min intervals following ET-1 administrations. The airway resistance, inertance, tissue damping and elastance were extracted from the Z(L) spectra. While VIP, ET(A) blocker and combined ET(A) and ET(B) blockers significantly prevented the pulmonary vasoconstriction induced by ET-1, ET(B) blockade enhanced the ET-1-induced increases in PVR. In contrast, the ET(A) and ET(B) blockers markedly elevated the ET-1-induced increases in airway resistance, while VIP blunted this constrictor response. Our results suggest that VIP potently acts against the airway and pulmonary vascular constriction mediated by endothelin-1, while the ET(A) and ET(B) blockers exert a differential effect between airway resistance and PVR."xsd:string
