摘要:
Prazosin (25 microM) was found to increase 125I-labeled rat atrial natriuretic peptide ([125I]rANP) receptor binding by 50% (SC50) in bovine adrenal zona glomerulosa membranes. A series of 2,4-disubstituted quinazolines was prepared in order to identify more potent analogues for additional in vitro testing. Compound 7 (N-[3-[[2-(diethyl-amino)-4-quinazolinyl]amino]propyl] guanidine dinitrate) from this series (3 microM) significantly decreased the EC50 for rANP-mediated inhibition of ACTH-stimulated aldosterone synthesis in rat adrenal glomerulosa cells. At a higher concentration (20 microM), compound 7 had no effect on particulate guanylate cyclase from rabbit glomeruli in either the presence or absence of rANP.
