    Product Description

    Nelociguat is a stimulator of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) and an active metabolite of riociguat (Item No. 9000554).1,2 It is formed from riociguat by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP1A1.3 Nelociguat increases phosphorylation of the protein kinase G (PKG) substrate vasodilator-stimulator protein (VASP) in isolated rat aortic smooth muscle cells (EC50 = 353 nM).1 It induces vasodilation in rat aortic rings (EC50 = 75 nM). Nelociguat (3 mg/kg) decreases urine output and cardiac hypertrophy, as well as improves survival, in spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone rats fed a high-salt high-fat diet. It improves erectile responses to electrical stimulation of the cavernous nerve in a rat model of cavernous nerve crush injury when administered at doses of 0.03 and 0.3 mg/kg.2
