Aminaftone, a derivative of 4-aminobenzoic acid, downregulates endothelin-1 (ET-1) production in vitro by interfering with the transcription of the pre-pro-ET-1 gene. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Aminaphthone is a member of naphthols. | [in vivo]
The rats are randomly assigned to the following experimental groups: Control; Monocrotaline; Aminaftone 30 mg/kg/day; Aminaftone 150 mg/kg/day. After 5 weeks, mortality is significantly lower in the animals treated with Aminaftone at both doses compared to Monocrotaline alone. Aminaftone reduces plasma concentration of ET-1 and seems to reduce right heart hypertrophy and the wall thickness of the pulmonary arteries at the highest dose. At the end of the experiment, no rats die in the control and Aminaftone 150 groups, while mortality is 38% in the Monocrotaline group and 13% in the Aminaftone 30 group. Overall, Aminaftone treated rats have a significantly lower mortality compared to rats in the Monocrotaline group (P=0.044)[2]. | [storage]
