Ambrisentan sodium  (Synonyms: 安倍生坦钠盐; BSF 208075 sodium; LU 208075 sodium)

Ambrisentan (BSF 208075) sodium is a selective and orally active ET type A receptor (ETAR) antagonist^[1][2].

Ambrisentan sodium is an endothelin type A receptor antagonist^[1].
Ambrisentan sodium induces Nrf2 activation. Endothelial permeability increased in BMEC monolayers at 24 h of hypoxia exposure and compared to vehicle control, Ambrisentan attenuates hypoxia-induced BMEC leak. These results are reversed when prior to treatment BMEC are transfected with siRNA against Nrf2^[2].

In the Ambrisentan group, hepatic hydroxyproline content is significantly lower than in the control group (18.0 μg/g±6.1 μg/g vs 33.9 μg/g±13.5 μg/g liver, respectively, P=0.014). Hepatic fibrosis estimated by Sirius red staining and areas positive for α-smooth muscle actin, indicative of activated hepatic stellate cells, are also significantly lower in the Ambrisentan group (0.46%±0.18% vs 1.11%±0.28%, respectively, P=0.0003; and 0.12%±0.08% vs 0.25%±0.11%, respectively, P=0.047). Moreover, hepatic RNA expression levels of procollagen-1 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) are significantly lower by 60% and 45%, respectively, in the Ambrisentan group. Inflammation, steatosis, and endothelin-related mRNA expression in the liver are not significantly different between the groups. Ambrisentan sodium attenuates the progression of hepatic fibrosis by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation and reducing procollagen-1 and TIMP-1 gene expression. Ambrisentan sodium did not affect inflammation or steatosis^[1].
