Stress-induced cardiac insufficiency relating to abnormal leptin and FKBP12.6 is ameliorated by CPU0213, an endothelin receptor antagonist, which is not affected by the CYP3A suppressing effect of erythromycin. The Journal of pharmacy and pharmacology, 2009, Volume: 61, Issue:5 Cardiac injury induced by isoprenaline produces stress. This stress can be mediated by the activated endothelin and leptin pathway; thus, the endothelin receptor antagonist CPU0213 may reverse these changes. CPU0213 is metabolized mainly by cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A, thus, erythromycin, an inhibitor of CYP3A, could affect its effects by raising its plasma levels.. Forty rats were divided into five groups. Group 1 rats were normal. Group 2 rats were administered isoprenaline (1 mg/kg, s.c.) for 10 days. Groups 3, 4 and 5 were administered isoprenaline, but group 3 was given erythromycin (100 mg/kg, p.o.) alone on days six to ten, group 4 was given CPU0213 20 mg/kg (s.c.) on days six to ten, whilst group 5 received erythromycin plus CPU0213 on days six to ten. Measurements were conducted to observe changes in the haemodynamics, cardiac weight index, serum lactate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase levels, and expression of endothelin receptor A (ETA), leptin and its OBRb receptor.. In isoprenaline-treated rats, cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction were found. This was associated with upregulated myocardial leptin protein and OBRb receptor mRNA. Immunohistochemical assay of ETA was upregulated, accompanied with downregulation of FKBP12.6 (calstabin 2) in isoprenaline-treated rats. These effects were significantly reversed by CPU0213. HPLC assay presented an increased plasma level of CPU0213 by erythromycin, but no change in its effects.. CPU0213 improved isoprenaline-induced cardiomyopathy by modulating ETA, leptin and FKBP12.6. However, erythromycin increased plasma levels but did not change its effects.
