A-80b is a synthesized pyridazino[4,5-b]indole derivate with potent and long-lasting antihypertensive activity. The decrease in diastolic pressure was greater than the decrease in systolic pressure and cardiac frequency was not modified significantly. A-8
AAA is an antagonist of G protein-coupled receptor 75 (GPR75).1It increases basal GPR75 protein levels and inhibits 20-HETE-induced reductions in GPR75 protein levels in PC3 cells. AAA (5 and 10 μM) also reduces 20-HETE-induced phosphorylation of EGFR, NF-κB, and Akt in, and cell migration of, PC3 cells.In vivo, AAA (10 mg/kg per day) reduces systolic blood pressure, albuminuria, renal angiotensin II levels, and cardiac hypertrophy in a Cyp1a1-Ren-2 transgenic rat model of malignant hypertension when administered prior to induction or after establishment of hypertension.2 1.Cárdenas, S., Colombero, C., Panelo, L., et al.GPR75 receptor mediates 20-HETE-signaling and metastatic features of androgen-insensitive prostate cancer cellsBiochim.

C2 Ceramide (d14:1 2:0) is a bioactive sphingolipid. Dietary administration of C2 ceramide (d14:1 2:0) (100 μM) induces lipotoxic cardiomyopathy via increasing diastolic and systolic diameter as well as reducing fractional shortening and the number of normal cardiac contractile events in Drosophila.
Quazinone is a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) with positive inotropic and vasodilating properties.1,2 It induces relaxation of precontracted isolated human cavernous smooth muscle (IC50 = 4.2 μM).1 Quazinone (10-300 μg kg) increases myocardial contractile force in anesthetized open-chest dogs in a dose-dependent manner, as well as decreases systolic and diastolic blood pressure.2 It also inhibits DNA synthesis induced by the PDGF isoform PDGF-BB in bovine coronary artery smooth muscle cells in a concentration-dependent manner.3
18-Hydroxy-11-deoxy Corticosterone (18-OH-DOC) is a mineralocorticoid produced by the zona fasciculata of the adrenal gland, with its biosynthesis regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and angiotensin II. This regulation heightens 18-OH-DOC production in isolated human adrenal glomerulosa cells and allows for its formation from 11-deoxy corticosterone (DOC) in human SK-MEL188 melanoma cells. As an intermediate in progesterone metabolism, 18-OH-DOC can be converted to aldosterone in rat adrenal glands' capsular portion. Its continuous infusion (200 μg rat per day) has been shown to raise systolic blood pressure in uninephrectomized saline-drinking rats, and elevated plasma levels of 18-OH-DOC have been observed in the adb db mouse model of type 2 diabetes.
Oblongine chloride may have potential haemodynamic effects, it can cause a dose-dependent reduction of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and that these effects are not mediated by α²-adrenergic receptor stimulation.
N-methyltaxol C and paclitaxel can produce a positive inotropic effect in papillary muscle, without alterations in the action potential. They can induced conduction arrhythmias and reduce coronary flow and left ventricular systolic pressure in the isolate
