BQ-610 is a selective antagonist of the endothelin A receptor (ETA receptor). BQ-610 specifically blocks the ETA receptor, competitively inhibiting the binding of endothelin-1 (ET-1) (a vasoconstrictive peptide) to the receptor, thereby blocking the effects of ET-1 such as vascular smooth muscle contraction, cell mitosis, and inhibition of hormone secretion. BQ-610 significantly alleviates cerebral vasospasm in rabbits. BQ-610 blocks the bronchial epithelial and pulmonary vascular cell proliferation caused by cigarette smoke in rat models. BQ-610 can delay the natural luteal regression in the cow's uterus. BQ-610 can be used for research on vasospasm, abnormal cell proliferation, and reproductive endocrine disorders.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C.
