Proinflammatory characteristics of a nonpeptide bradykinin mimic, FR190997, in vivo.
1. Proinflammatory potency of the nonpeptide bradykinin (BK) B(2) receptor agonist FR190997 (8-[2,6-dichloro-3-[N-[(E)-4-(N-methylcarbamoyl)cinnamidoacetyl]-N-methylamino]benzyloxy]-2-methyl-4-(2-pyridylmethoxy)quinoline) was investigated. 2. Intradermal injection of FR190997 (0.03 - 3 nmol site(-1)) into dorsal skin of rats increased vascular permeability in a dose-dependent manner. The effect was less than that of BK, but it was long-acting and was inhibited by treatment with FR173657 (3 mg kg(-1), p.o.). Captopril (10 mg kg(-1), i.p.) did not enhance the plasma extravasation by FR190997 (0.3 nmol site(-1)) in the presence of soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI, 30 microg site(-1)). 3. Subcutaneous injection of FR190997 (3 nmol site(-1)) into the hindpaw of mice markedly induced paw swelling. The oedema lasted up to 3 h after the injection. Administration of indomethacin or NS-398 (10 mg kg(-1), i.p.) significantly reduced it at 3 h after the injection. 4. Simultaneous i.p. injection of prostaglandin (PG) E(2) (1 nmol site(-1)) or beraprost sodium (0.5 nmol site(-1)) with FR190997 (5 nmol site(-1)) greatly enhanced frequency of writhing reactions in mice. 5. FR190997 (0.3 - 30 nmol kg(-1), i.v.) showed less increase in airway opening pressure (Pao) in the guinea-pig after i.v. injection. Furthermore, FR190997 (0.03 - 30 nmol) resulted in a very weak contraction of tracheal ring strips and lung parenchymal sections in vitro. 6. In mice sponge implants, topical application of FR190997 increased angiogenesis and granulation with enhanced expressions of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNAs. 7. These results indicate that FR190997 has proinflammatory long-lasting characteristics and it might be 'a stable tool' for studying the role of BK B(2) receptor in vivo.

FR190997, a novel bradykinin B2 agonist, expresses longer action than bradykinin in paw edema formation and hypotensive response.
Biological actions of a novel non-peptide B2 receptor agonist, FR190997, were examined by comparing them with those of bradykinin. The paw edema was induced by subcutaneous injection of 30 microl of solution of bradykinin (0.3, 0.6, and 1.2 nmol) or FR190997 (0.1, 0.3, and 0.9 nmol) into the right hind paw of ICR male mice. Bradykinin caused a dose-dependent edema formation, which peaked at 15 min and ceased after 150 min. FR190997 also formed a dose-dependent edema, peaking at 15-30 min with a slight delay compared to bradykinin and this response continued over 200 min. The edema formed by bradykinin or FR190997 was inhibited by pretreatment with HOE140 (1 mg/kg) injected intraperitoneally 30 min before the injection of each agonist. A novel non-peptide B2 antagonist, FR173657 (30 mg/kg, i.p. 30 min before the agonist), also diminished these responses by bradykinin and FR190997 dose-dependently. Indomethacin (10 mg/kg, i.p. 30 min before) inhibited the response to FR190997, suggesting that release of prostaglandins induced by the B2 agonistic action might be involved in this inflammatory process induced by FR190997. The hypotensive action of FR190997 was also examined. Intravenously injected FR190997 caused the systemic hypotensive response in Sprague-Dawley male rats anesthetized with pentobarbital. The potency of FR190997 was weaker than that of bradykinin, when compared with the maximal hypotension. Duration of the hypotensive response of FR190997 was significantly longer than that of bradykinin. These results indicate that FR190997 has the B2 agonistic action similar to bradykinin and is also a good tool for in vivo examination of the B2 receptor.

Mouse paw edema induced by a novel bradykinin agonist and its inhibition by B2-antagonists.
A novel non-peptide bradykinin B2-receptor agonist, FR190997 (8-[2,6-dichloro-3-[N-[(E)4-(N-methylcarbamoyl)cinnamidoacetyl+ ++]-N-methylamino]benzyloxy]-2-methyl-4-(2-pyridylmethoxy)quinolin e), induced dose-dependent and longer-lasting swelling than bradykinin in the mouse paw. The swelling, peaking around 30 min, was suppressed dose-dependently by intraperitoneal administration of FR173657, a novel non-peptide B2-receptor antagonist. A known B2-antagonist, Hoe 140, also significantly suppressed this edema. The result indicates that the novel B2-agonist FR190997, being more stable than bradykinin, could induce plasma exudation locally in mice via the B2-receptor as a substitute for bradykinin.
