Effect of Differentially Selective S1P Receptor Agonists on Cardiovascular Function after Acute and Long‐Term Administration in Rat Suggestive of Subtype‐Specific Bradycardia (S1P1) and Hypertension (S1P3)
Abstract:Sphingosine‐1‐Phospate (S1P) and S1P receptor agonists elicit mechanism‐based effects on cardiovascular function in vivo. Indeed, FTY‐720 (subtype non‐selective S1PX agonist) produces mild hypertension in patients (2–3 mmHg in a 1‐yr trial) as well as acute bradycardia independent of changes in blood pressure. However, the precise receptor subtypes responsible is controversial, possibly dependent upon the CV effect in question (e.g. bradycardia/hypertension), and perhaps even species‐dependent since functional… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
