Protocol

Animal experiment:

Rats[1]For the assay of pressor activity, male Wistar rats weighing 300-350 g are anesthetized with urethane (1 g/kg i.p.) and pretreated with atropine (0.25 mg/kg i.v.), propranolol (1 mg/kg i.v.), and bunazocine (1 mg/kg i.v.). Additional maintenance doses (one-half of the initial doses) of the autonomic blockades are administered every 3-4 hr. Each animal is given only one bolus of Endothelin-2. 1 nM of Endothelin-2 in 50 μL of buffer is bolus injected from a cannula inserted in the right femoral vein. The blood pressure is recorded from a cannula, which is placed in the right carotid artery and connected to a pressure transducer[1].

Background

Endothelin-2, human is a 21-amino acid vasoactive peptide that binds to G-protein-linked transmembrane receptors, ET-RA and ET-RB. ET-RA, ET-RB[1]

At nanomolar concentrations, Endothelin-2 exhibits a strong and long-lasting vasoconstrictor activity characteristic of endothelin (EC50=0.52 nM)[1]. Endothelin-2 is a chemoattractant for macrophages and THP-1 monocytic cells, but not for freshly isolated monocytes. The chemotactic response to Endothelin-2 shows a typical bell-shaped response curve. Experiments with endothelin receptor antagonists shows that migration to Endothelin-2 is mediated via the ET-RB receptor. Endothelin-2 expression by tumors may modulate the behavior of macrophages such that activated cells accumulate in areas of hypoxia[2].

Two distinct phases of pressor effects are typically seen in response to Endothelin-2: the early phase immediately follows the depressor response and dominates during the next 3-10 min, whereas the late pressor effect develops 10-20 min after the injection and lasts >1 hr[1].

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
