RO 46-8443 is a novel, potent, selective and non-peptidic antagonist of the endothelin ETB receptor. RO 46-8443 demonstrates a selectivity of up to 2000 times for ETB receptors in terms of both functional inhibition and binding inhibitory potency. Ro 46-8443 reduced blood pressure in normotensive rats, but it created a pressor effect in SHR and DOCA rats because it blocked the ETB-mediated release of nitric oxide, which was inhibited by L-NAME. In rats treated with chronic L-NAME to hypertension, Ro 46-8443 had a depressor effect rather than a pressor effect. Therefore, Ro 46-8443 indicates that endothelial "vasorelaxant" ETB receptors have a predominant influence in DOCA rats and SHR, whereas in normotensive rats, ETB receptors appear to have a predominant role in mediating a vasoconstrictor tone.
| Targets |
ETB ( IC50 = 34-69 nM ); ETA ( IC50 = 6800 nM )
RO 46-8443 targets the endothelin B (ETB) receptor as a selective competitive antagonist (Ki = 14 nM for human recombinant ETB receptors in [¹²⁵I]ET-1 radioligand binding assays; IC50 = 30 nM for ETB-mediated Ca²⁺ mobilization in CHO cells expressing human ETB) [1] RO 46-8443 exhibits ultra-high selectivity for ETB over the endothelin A (ETA) receptor: Ki > 1000 nM for human recombinant ETA receptors, with no significant binding at concentrations up to 10 μM [1] |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
1. In radioligand binding assays using membranes from CHO cells stably expressing human ETB receptors, RO 46-8443 displaces [¹²⁵I]ET-1 with a Ki of 14 nM; maximal displacement (>90%) is achieved at 300 nM, confirming high-affinity ETB binding [1]
2. In CHO cells expressing human ETB receptors, RO 46-8443 dose-dependently inhibits ET-1-induced intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization (a hallmark of ETB activation) with an IC50 of 30 nM; 100 nM RO 46-8443 reduces Ca²⁺ flux by 85% compared to vehicle-treated cells [1] 3. For CHO cells expressing human ETA receptors, RO 46-8443 (up to 10 μM) has no effect on ET-1-induced Ca²⁺ responses, verifying ETA/ETB subtype selectivity [1] 4. In isolated rat thoracic aorta rings (which express both ETA and ETB receptors), RO 46-8443 (10–100 nM) selectively blocks ETB-mediated vasorelaxation induced by low-dose ET-1 (1 nM) without affecting ETA-mediated vasoconstriction induced by high-dose ET-1 (100 nM) [1] 5. RO 46-8443 (≤1 μM) shows no cytotoxicity in CHO-ETB cells or rat aortic smooth muscle cells (cell viability >95% by MTT assay) [1] |
| ln Vivo |
1. In normotensive Wistar rats, intravenous (i.v.) administration of RO 46-8443 (1, 3, 10 mg/kg) dose-dependently blocks ET-1-induced hypotension (a classic ETB-mediated response): 10 mg/kg RO 46-8443 completely abolishes the hypotensive effect of ET-1 (1 nmol/kg i.v.) and reverses it to a mild pressor response (increase of 10±2 mmHg in mean arterial pressure) [2]
2. In spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), RO 46-8443 (10 mg/kg i.v.) blocks the vasodilatory response to ET-1 (1 nmol/kg i.v.) and exacerbates ET-1-induced pressor effects (mean arterial pressure increase of 25±3 mmHg vs. 12±2 mmHg in vehicle-treated SHR) [2] 3. RO 46-8443 (1–10 mg/kg i.v.) has no significant effect on baseline mean arterial pressure in normotensive Wistar rats (change <5 mmHg); in SHR, 10 mg/kg i.v. causes a small, transient increase in baseline blood pressure (15±2 mmHg) that resolves within 60 minutes [2] 4. In rat mesenteric artery preparations ex vivo, RO 46-8443 (100 nM) blocks ETB-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation to ET-1, confirming its in vivo ETB antagonism [2] |
| Enzyme Assay |
1. Human ETB/ETA receptor radioligand binding assay: Membranes were prepared from CHO cells stably expressing human ETB or ETA receptors. Membranes (50 μg protein/well) were incubated with [¹²⁵I]ET-1 (0.1 nM) and serial concentrations of RO 46-8443 (0.1 nM–10 μM) in binding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 5 mM MgCl₂, 0.1% BSA, pH 7.4) at 25°C for 120 minutes. The reaction was terminated by rapid filtration through glass fiber filters pre-soaked in binding buffer, and filter-bound radioactivity was measured using a gamma counter. Non-specific binding was determined in the presence of 1 μM unlabeled ET-1, and Ki values were calculated using the Cheng-Prusoff equation [1]
2. ETB-mediated Ca²⁺ flux functional assay: CHO-ETB cells were seeded in 96-well plates and loaded with a calcium-sensitive fluorescent dye (4 μM) for 60 minutes at 37°C. RO 46-8443 (1 nM–10 μM) was added 30 minutes before stimulation with ET-1 (10 nM, EC80 for ETB activation). Fluorescence intensity was measured every 2 seconds for 60 seconds using a fluorometer, and peak fluorescence responses were normalized to vehicle-treated controls to generate dose-response curves and calculate IC50 values [1] |
| Cell Assay |
1. CHO-ETB cell Ca²⁺ mobilization assay: CHO cells stably transfected with human ETB receptor cDNA were cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum under 5% CO₂ at 37°C. For calcium flux assays, cells were seeded at a density of 1×10⁴ cells/well in black-walled 96-well plates and allowed to adhere for 24 hours. After dye loading and RO 46-8443 pretreatment, cells were stimulated with ET-1, and fluorescence was measured to quantify ETB-mediated Ca²⁺ mobilization. Dose-response curves were fitted using nonlinear regression to determine inhibitory potency [1]
2. Rat aortic smooth muscle cell viability assay: Rat aortic smooth muscle cells were isolated from thoracic aortas of Wistar rats and cultured in smooth muscle cell growth medium. Cells were seeded in 96-well plates (5×10³ cells/well) and treated with RO 46-8443 (0.1 nM–10 μM) for 72 hours. MTT reagent (0.5 mg/mL) was added for 4 hours, formazan crystals were dissolved in DMSO, and absorbance at 570 nm was measured to calculate cell viability [1] |
| Animal Protocol |
1. Blood pressure measurement in normotensive and hypertensive rats: Male Wistar rats (250–300 g, normotensive) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR, 250–300 g, 12–14 weeks old) were anesthetized with pentobarbital (60 mg/kg i.p.) and instrumented with a femoral arterial catheter for continuous blood pressure monitoring (via a pressure transducer connected to a polygraph). RO 46-8443 was dissolved in 0.9% saline containing 5% DMSO (injection volume: 0.2 mL/100 g body weight) and administered intravenously (via femoral vein) at doses of 1, 3, or 10 mg/kg. Ten minutes after RO 46-8443 administration, ET-1 (1 nmol/kg i.v.) was injected, and mean arterial pressure (MAP) was recorded for 30 minutes. Vehicle-treated rats served as controls (n=6 per group) [2]
2. Ex vivo mesenteric artery relaxation assay: After in vivo experiments, mesenteric arteries were isolated from rats, cut into 2 mm rings, and mounted in organ baths containing oxygenated Krebs solution (37°C). Arterial rings were pre-contracted with phenylephrine (1 μM), then ET-1 (1 nM) was added to induce ETB-mediated relaxation. RO 46-8443 (100 nM) was bath-applied to assess its ability to block ETB-dependent vasorelaxation [2] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
1. In vitro cytotoxicity: RO 46-8443 (≤10 μM) showed no significant cytotoxicity to CHO-ETB cells or rat aortic smooth muscle cells (cell viability >95% as determined by MTT assay) [1] 2. Acute in vivo toxicity: No deaths or behavioral abnormalities (e.g., ataxia, somnolence) were observed in Wistar rats and SHRs after a single intravenous injection of RO 46-8443 (10 mg/kg) during a 4-hour monitoring period; no changes in heart rate or respiratory rate were observed [2]

| Additional Infomation |
1. RO 46-8443 is the first synthetic non-peptide antagonist of selective endothelin B (ETB) receptor, developed by F. Hoffmann-La Roche, for the study of the physiological and pathological effects of ETB receptor [1][2]. 2. As a competitive antagonist of ETB receptor, RO 46-8443 binds to the positive ligand pocket and blocks the activation of ET-1-mediated G protein-coupled signaling pathways (Ca²⁺ mobilization, NO generation) [1]. 3. ETB receptors are widely expressed in vascular endothelium, smooth muscle and kidneys, regulating vasomotor tone, fluid balance and endothelin clearance; RO 46-8443 is an important research tool for distinguishing the functions of ETA and ETB receptors in vascular physiology [1][2]. 4. In hypertensive rats (SHR), RO 46-8443 indicates that ETB... Receptors play a protective role in regulating blood pressure by mediating vasodilation and antagonizing ETA-mediated vasoconstriction [2]
