Application

BQ-123 has been used as a selective endothelin-A receptor antagonist to study its effects on tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα)-induced human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) proliferation. It is also used as endothelin-A receptor antagonist to study its effects on TNFα-induced granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) expression.

Biochem/physiol Actions

BQ-123 is an endothelin(Et) receptor antagonist and is exquisite for endothelin A (ETA) receptor. It is a cyclic pentapeptide.
Selective ETA endothelin receptor antagonist.

The present study was designed to determine whether an endothelinA (ETA)-receptor antagonist BQ-123 (cyclo[Dtrp, Dasp, pro-D-Val-Leu]) or an ET-converting enzyme inhibitor phosphoramidon may prevent development of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).
