Hypertension is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, despite the availability of antihypertensive drugs with different targets and mechanisms of action. Here, we provide evidence that pharmacological inhibition of TMEM16A (ANO1), a calcium-activated chloride channel expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells, blocks calcium-activated chloride currents and contraction in vascular smooth muscle in vitro and decreases blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats. The acylaminocycloalkylthiophene TMinh-23 fully inhibited calcium-activated TMEM16A chloride current with nanomolar potency in Fischer rat thyroid cells expressing TMEM16A, and in primary cultures of rat vascular smooth muscle cells. TMinh-23 reduced vasoconstriction caused by the thromboxane mimetic U46619 in mesenteric resistance arteries of wild-type and spontaneously hypertensive rats, with a greater inhibition in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Blood pressure measurements by tail-cuff and telemetry showed up to a 45-mmHg reduction in systolic blood pressure lasting for four-six hours in spontaneously hypertensive rats after a single dose of TMinh-23. A minimal effect on blood pressure was seen in wild-type rats or mice treated with TMinh-23. Five-day twice daily treatment of spontaneously hypertensive rats with TMinh-23 produced sustained reductions of 20–25 mmHg in daily mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure. TMinh-23 action was reversible, with blood pressure returning to baseline in spontaneously hypertensive rats by three days after treatment discontinuation. Thus, our studies provide validation for TMEM16A as a target for antihypertensive therapy and demonstrate the efficacy of TMinh-23 as an antihypertensive with a novel mechanism of action.
