Nitric oxide (NO)-donor drugs, which stimulate reduced form of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), have different efficacy to the arteries and veins. This study examined whether sGC activators, which activate oxidized/apo sGC, also have arteriovenous selectivity similar to that of NO-donor drugs. The mechanical responses of the isolated blood vessels were assessed using the organ chamber technique and protein expression was verified using western blotting.

Background And Hypothesis: In chronic kidney disease (CKD) the nitric oxide (NO)-soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC)-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway is impaired. Runcaciguat, an sGC activator, activates heme-free sGC, restoring cGMP production. This phase 2a trial studied the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of runcaciguat in CKD patients with or without sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i).

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Qifu yixin prescription (QYP), an effective traditional Chinese medicine formula, has been utilized in the clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases for over two decades and has been granted a national invention patent in China. It has demonstrated the ability to improve clinical symptoms in patients with heart failure. However, its precise effects and underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear.

6-Nitrodopamine (6-ND) is the predominant catecholamine released from isolated vascular tissues in both mammals and reptiles, with its release being significantly reduced by the NO synthesis inhibitor, N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). The vasorelaxation induced by 6-ND is unaffected by either L-NAME or the soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) inhibitor, ODQ, indicating an alternative mechanism of action. The vasorelaxant effect appears to be mediated through selective antagonism of dopamine D receptors rather than traditional nitric oxide (NO)-mediated pathways.
