Snake venom-derived SARAFOTOXIN S6B (cas 116303-65-2) (SRT) and porcine endothelium-derived endothelin-1 (ET) have striking structural similarities. In conscious, freely-moving rats, ET (0.67 nmol/kg) produced a transient tachycardia and fall in arterial blood pressure which was followed by a long-lasting increase in arterial pressure, bradycardia, decrease in cardiac output (CO) and marked increase in total peripheral resistance. In contrast, SRT (0.67 nmol/kg) produced only the sustained cardiovascular responses. The sustained cardiovascular effects of SRT or ET were similarly attenuated by nifedipine. SRT and ET (30 nM) produced vasoconstriction in the isolated perfused mesenteric vascular bed without initial vasodilation. SRT and ET had potent positive inotropic and negative chronotropic effects on isolated perfused hearts and induced toxic reactions including coronary vasospasm, arrhythmias, A-V block and ventricular fibrillation. In addition to SRT lacking the initial depressor response in vivo, several differences in the activities of the peptides were also observed. ET produced greater and longer-lasting actions than SRT in producing pressor and vasoconstrictor responses in all 3 preparations, and in its ability to induce toxic effects on the heart.
