The effects of a peptide, BQ-788 [N-cis-2, 6-dimethyl-piperidinocarbonyl-L-gamma-methylleucyl-D-1- methoxycarbonyltryptophanyl-D-norleucine], on isolated blood vessel and small intestine were examined. In the rat aorta, BQ-788 antagonized the endothelium-dependent, ETB1 receptor-mediated relaxation due to endothelin (ET)-3 with EC50 of 3 microM. In the

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disorders and in some cases is complication of pulmonary hypertension. We simulated OSA by exposing rats to cyclic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) to investigate its effect on pulmonary vascular endothelial dysfunction.
