FR167344 free base is an orally active, nonpeptide antagonist of the bradykinin receptor B2, exhibiting high-affinity binding (IC50: 65 nM) and showing no binding affinity for the B1 receptor.
Potent and selective bradykininB1 receptor agonist (EC50 = 9.02 nM in rabbit aorta) that is resistant to aminopeptidase, kininase I and II (ACE) and neutral endopeptidase cleavage. Exhibits hypotensive and angiogenic activity in vivo.
Endogenous potent and highly selective bradykininB1 receptor agonist (Ki values are 0.12 and > 30000 nM at human B1 and B2 receptors respectively). Hypotensive agent that reduces peripheral vascular resistance in vivo. 16-fold more potent than [Des-Arg9]
