Measurement of endothelin receptors by binding assay was performed in rats treated with cyclosporine A (CYA). Cyclosporine A administration at 50 mg/kg i.p. for 4 days resulted in renal function impairment as indicated by a significant increase in serum creatinine concentration (from 0.46 ± 0.02 to 0.61 ± 0.03 mg/dl, P < 0.01) and a significant decrease in 24 h creatinine clearance (from 0.65 ± 0.04 to 0.41 ± 0.02 ml/min per 100 g, P < 0.01). Renal endothelin (ET) receptor density was significantly higher in CYA-treated rats (312 ± 34 vs. 196 ± 26 fmol/mg protein, P < 0.01). These data support the possible involvement for endothelin in the increased renal vascular resistance associated with CYA-induced nephrotoxicity.
