Fasudil has vasodilatory action and occupies the adenine pocket of the ATP-binding site of the enzyme. Fasudil produces a competitive inhibition of the Ca2+-induced contraction of the depolarized rabbit aorta. Fasudil inhibits contractile responses to KCl, phenylephnne (PHE) and prostaglandin (PG) F2a. Fasudil also exhibits vasodilator actions by inhibition of 5-hydroxytryptamine, noradrenaline, histamine, angiotensin, and dopamine induced spiral strips contraction. In addition, Fasudil induces disorganization of actin stress fiber and cell migration inhibition. Fasudil inhibits hepatic stellate cells spreading, the formation of stress fibers, and expression of α-SMA with concomitant suppression of cell growth, but does not induce apoptosis. Fasudil also blocks the LPA-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, JNK and p38 MAPK.
