In Vitro
Tube formation ability is restored when microvascular endothelial cells are preincubated with BOS or macitentan (ACT-064992), also reducing the expression of mesenchymal markers and restoring CD31 expression and the imbalance between VEGF-A and VEGF-A165b[1].
Macitentan inhibits OATP1B1-mediated uptake of atorvastatin and OATP1B3-mediated uptake of estrone-3-sulfate with IC50 ± SE values of 6.3 ± 0.7 and 11.8 ± 5.0 μM, respectively[3].
Treatment with macitentan or with ACT-132577 does not lead to intracellular accumulation of R123 in HeyA8-MDR, showing that these compounds are not P-gp inhibitors[4].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
Macitentan (10 mg/kg, p.o.) coupled with once-per-week 5 mg/kg taxol, significantly reduces the weight (size) of HeyA8-MDR tumors in mice. Combination therapy with macitentan (10 or 50 mg/kg, but not 5 mg/kg) and taxol or macitentan (10 mg/kg) and cisplatinum significantly reduces the number of proliferating Ki-67-positive cells[4].

We studied whether the antitumor immunity boosted by the combination therapy could be reversed by injecting exogenous EV PD-L1. We injected EMT6 tumor-derived EVs intravenously into EMT6 tumor-bearing mice co-treated with MAC (Macitentan) and the anti-PD-L1 antibody.

Animal Administration[2]
Male db/db mice and age and sex-matched controls (27-32 g) are used for the assay. RandomLy selected diabetic animals are monitored for either 2 months or for 4 months after onset of diabetes. Groups (n=7/group) of the diabetic mice are subjected to oral macitentan treatment for the same period (25 mg/kg/day, food admix). The animals are monitored through assessment of body weight and blood glucose.
