Abstract

L-648,051, sodium 4-[3-(4-acetyl-3-hydroxy-2-propylphenoxy) propylsulfonyl]-gamma-oxo-benzenebutanoate is a selective and competitive inhibitor of [3H]leukotriene D4 (KB value of 4.0 microM) and to a lesser extent [3H]leukotriene C4 (Ki value of 36.7 microM) binding in guinea pig lung homogenates. Functionally, it selectively antagonized contractions of guinea pig trachea induced by leukotrienes C4, D4, E4, and F4 in concentrations that did not antagonize contractions induced by acetylcholine, histamine, serotonin, prostaglandin F2 alpha, or U-44069 (endoperoxide analogue). Schild plot analysis indicated that L-648,051 competitively antagonized contractions of guinea pig ileum induced by leukotriene D4 (pA2 7.7) and contractions of trachea induced by leukotrienes D4, E4, and F4 (pA2 7.3, 7.4, and 7.5, respectively). Contractions of guinea pig trachea induced by leukotriene C4 were inhibited in a noncompetitive fashion (Schild plot slope, 0.45). Developed contractions of trachea induced by the leukotrienes were rapidly reversed by L-648,051 greater than FPL-55712 greater than L-649,923. Intravenous L-648,051 selectively blocked bronchoconstriction induced in anaesthetized guinea pigs by intravenous leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4 but not that induced by arachidonic acid, serotonin, U-44069, or acetylcholine. The compound displayed poor activity following intraduodenal administration. The profile of activity for L-648,051 indicates that it may be a useful topical agent for studying the role of leukotrienes in diseases such as bronchial asthma.
