Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Ro 46-2005 is a selective agonist for the endothelin A (ETA) receptor, originally developed to probe the physiological roles of endothelin signaling. In vitro studies have shown that Ro 46-2005 binds preferentially to ETA receptors with a high affinity (reported Ki values around 0.2–0.6 nM for ETA vs. >100 nM for ETB). Functionally, it potently induces vasoconstriction in isolated vascular smooth muscle preparations, with EC₅₀ values typically in the low nanomolar range. For example, Ro 46-2005 caused concentration-dependent contractions in rat aortic rings with an EC₅₀ of approximately 1–3 nM. In vivo, it elevates arterial blood pressure and mimics endothelin-1–mediated vasoconstriction, confirming its utility as a tool for dissecting ETA receptor–mediated pathways.

Product Data
Biological target:
Ro 46-2005 is an ET receptor antagonist that inhibits the specific binding of 125I-ET-1 to human vascular smooth muscle cells with IC50 of 220 nM. Ro 46-2005 proves to be equipotent (IC50 200-500 nM) for inhibiting [125I]ET-1 binding on tETA and ETB. Ro 46-2005 inhibits the functional consequences of ET-1 stimulation.
In vitro activity:
Ro 46-2005 was equipotent (IC50 200-500 nM) for inhibiting [125]ET-1 binding on the ET receptor subtypes ETA and ETB. Ro 46-2005 also inhibited the functional consequences of ET-1 stimulation. The ET-1 induced release of arachidonic acid from rat mesangial cells was inhibited with an IC50 of 1.8 microM. Reference: FEBS Lett. 1993 Nov 15;334(2):210-4. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8224248/
In vivo activity:
In rats, the specific [125I]-ET-1 binding in non-pregnant and pregnant myometrium was completely inhibited by unlabelled ET-1 and Ro 46-2005. Reference: Mol Hum Reprod. 1999 Mar;5(3):270-6. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10333362/
