Ro 46-2005 is an antagonist of endothelin receptor type A (ETA) and ETB (IC50s = 220 and 160 nM, respectively).1 It inhibits endothelin-1-induced secretion of arachidonic acid (Item Nos. 90010 | 90010.1 | 10006607) in primary rat mesangial cells (IC50 = 1.8 µM). Ro 46-2005 prevents sarafotoxin S6-induced relaxation in preconstricted rat mesenteric arteries (pA2 = 6.47).2 It increases cerebral blood flow in a rat model of subarachnoid hemorrhage when administered at a dose of 3 mg/kg. Ro 46-2005 (30 or 100 mg/kg) decreases systolic blood pressure in sodium-depleted monkeys.
