Note
This product is supplied in one (or more) pack size which is freeze dried. Therefore the contents may not be readily visible, as they can coat the bottom or walls of the vial. Please see our FAQs and information page for more details on handling. Solvents listed may be unsuitable for use in biological experiments. These solvents are intended to enable solubilisation and mixing of components. We recommend that biologically unsuitable solvents are removed prior to solubilisation in experimental media. 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. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.

Product Description
BQ-788 sodium salt is a potent and selective ETB receptor antagonist, inhibiting ET-1 binding to ETB receptors with an IC50 of 1.2 nM in human Girrardi heart cells.
Application：
BQ-788 has been used as a selective endothelin-B (ETRB) blocker in human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMCs), uterine mesothelial cells (UtMCs)-derived vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as peptides. These are compounds containing an amide derived from two or more amino carboxylic acid molecules (the same or different) by formation of a covalent bond from the carbonyl carbon of one to the nitrogen atom of another.
