In Vivo
Fasudil (30 μg) increases CBF by 50% via intra-coronary injection to dogs. Fasudil (0.01, 0.03, 0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg, bolus, i.v.) decreases MBP and increases HR, VBF, CBF, RBF, and FBF. Fasudil (1.0 ng/mL) increases cardiac output. Fasudil via i.v. produces a significant fall in MBP, left ventricular systolic pressure and total peripheral resistance with an increase in HR and cardiac output, but without obvious effect on right atrial pressure, dP/dt or left ventricular minute work in dogs[3]. Fasudil exhibits protectable effects on cardiovascular disease and reduces the activation of JNK and attenuates mitochondrial-nuclear translocation of AIF under ischemic injury[6]. Fasudil (100 mg/kg/day, p.o.) significantly reduces incidence and mean maximum clinical score of EAE in SJL/J mice immunized with PLP p139-151. Fasudil inhibits the proliferative response of splenocytes to the antigen in mice. Fasudil decreases inflammation, demyelination, axonal loss and APP positivein spinal cord of Fasudil-treated mice via p.o. administration[7].
In Vitro
Fasudil Hydrochloride has vasodilatory action and occupies the adenine pocket of the ATP-binding site of the enzyme[1]. Fasudil produces a competitive inhibition of the Ca2+-induced contraction of the depolarized rabbit aorta. Fasudil inhibits contractile responses to KCl, phenylephnne (PHE) and prostaglandin (PG) F2a[2]. Fasudil also exhibits vasodilator actions by inhibition of 5-hydroxytryptamine, noradrenaline, histamine, angiotensin, and dopamine induced spiral strips contraction[3]. In addition, Fasudil induces disorganization of actin stress fiber and cell migration inhibition[4]. Fasudil inhibits hepatic stellate cells spreading, the formation of stress fibers, and expression of α-SMA with concomitant suppression of cell growth, but does not induce apoptosis. Fasudil also blocks the LPA-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK and p38 MAPK[5].
