How Actelion-1 works
Through complete blockade of tissular endothelin, Actelion-1 is expected to protect tissue from the damaging effect of elevated endothelin, specifically in the cardiovascular system. In pre-clinical studies, Actelion-1 also exhibited effects suggesting that it maintains the integrity of the vascular wall and improves long-term outcome. Accordingly, Actelion-1 may provide therapeutic benefit in a wide range of cardiovascular indications.
