D-Arg[Hyp3-Thi5-D-Tic7-Tic8]-bradykinin, a potent antagonist of smooth muscle BK2 receptors and BK3 receptors.
1991
Abstract
D-Arg[Hyp3-Thi5-D-Tic7-Tic8]-bradykinin (NPC 16731) inhibited bradykinin (BK) binding and BK-induced contraction in guinea-pig ileum, being markedly more potent than D-Phe7-BK analogues as a BK2 receptor antagonist. In isolated trachea NPC 16731, unlike other BK2 antagonists, inhibited BK binding and BK-induced contraction, and 45Ca2+ efflux in tracheal smooth muscle cells. That NPC 16731 potently inhibits BK effects in trachea provides further evidence for the existence of the airway BK3 receptor.
