Protective effects of MCR-1329, a dual α1 and angII receptor antagonist, in mineralocorticoid-induced hypertension
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundWith the prototypical structures of losartan and prazosin as the axis of our research, MCR-1329 emerged as a potential designed multiple ligand from a series of compounds designed to possess dual antagonistic activity on the α1 and AT1 receptor. After confirming the activity of MCR-1329 in in vitro and acute in vivo models, the present study was undertaken to determine the efficacy of MCR-1329 in a mammalian test system.MethodsA rat model of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt induced renal hypertension following unilateral nephrectomy was utilized to determine the effect of MCR-1329. For mechanistic evaluations, MCR-1329 was evaluated on rat aortic strips in vitro and on rat aortic smooth muscle cells to determine the role of MCR-1329 on phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K) signaling.ResultsResults of the study showed that MCR-1329 prevents development of arterial hypertension. It was also observed that MCR-1329 upheld the intimal structures of major arteries like the thoracic aorta. Acetylcholine (Ach)-mediated relaxation remained intact in arteries from MCR-1329 treated animals. It was observed that MCR-1329 partially prevents Thr-308 phosphorylation of Akt following ligand-mediated receptor stimulation in vascular smooth muscle cells. Addition of LY294002 to the reaction medium caused a near-complete inhibition of Akt-phosphorylation. This suggested that MCR-1329 elicits its antihypertensive role by blocking activation of receptor-mediated PI3K–Akt downstream signaling as well as through preservation of arterial integrity.ConclusionsMCR-1329 has the potential to be evaluated further for clinical development as a potential antihypertensive agent with multiple mechanisms of action.
