- AIM: Stimulation of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) with BAY 41-8543 was hypothesized to attenuate acute hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction alone and combined with dual endothelin (ET)-receptor antagonist tezosentan. METHODS: Measurements were taken in 18 anaesthetized pigs with a mean ± SEM weight of 31.1 ± 0.4 kg, in normoxia (FiO(2) ~0.21) and hypoxia (FiO(2) ~0.10) without (control protocol, n = 6), and with right atrial infusion of BAY 41-8543 at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 μg min(-1) per kg (protocol 2, n = 6) or tezosentan at 5 mg kg(-1) followed by BAY 41-8543 at 1, 3 and 6 μg min(-1) per kg (protocol 3, n = 6). RESULTS: Hypoxia (n = 18) increased (P < 0.001) mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) by 14.2 ± 0.6 mmHg and 2.8 ± 0.3 WU respectively. During sustained hypoxia without treatment, MPAP and PVR remained stable. BAY 41-8543 (n = 6) dose-dependently decreased (P < 0.001) MPAP and PVR by 15.0 ± 1.2 mmHg and 4.7 ± 0.7 WU respectively. Tezosentan (n = 6) decreased (P < 0.001) MPAP and PVR by 11.8 ± 1.2 mmHg and 2.0 ± 0.2 WU, respectively, whereafter BAY 41-8543 (n = 6) further decreased (P < 0.001) MPAP and PVR by 6.6 ± 0.9 mmHg and 1.9 ± 0.4 WU respectively. Both BAY 41-8543 and tezosentan decreased (P < 0.001) systemic arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance. Blood-O(2) consumption remained unaltered (P = ns) during all interventions. CONCLUSION: BAY 41-8543 totally reverses the effects of acute hypoxia-induced pulmonary vasoconstriction, and enhances the attenuating effects of tezosentan, without affecting oxygenation. Thus, sGC stimulation, alone or combined with dual ET-receptor blockade, could offer a means to treat pulmonary hypertension related to hypoxia and potentially other causes.
