Fosbretabulin Disodium (CA 4P), a water-soluble prodrug of Combretastatin A4 (CA4), is a microtubule-targeting agent that binds β-tubulin (Kd: 0.4 μM). Fosbretabulin Disodium(Combretastatin A4 disodium phosphate) inhibits the polymerization of tubulin (IC50: 2.4 μM), and also disrupts tumor vasculature.

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a natural hormone-like substance involved in various physiological functions, including the contraction and relaxation of smooth muscles, dilation and constriction of blood vessels, regulation of blood pressure, and modulation of inflammation. It can be used to induce neuropathic pain models.

OR-1896 is the active metabolite of Levosimendan, a highly specific phosphodiesterase (PDE III) inhibitor, a vasodilator with partial anti-inflammatory properties that produces vasodilation in different types of blood vessels through activation of ATP-sensitive (KATP) and other potassium channels.OR-1896 can be used to study heart failure and vascular dysfunction. OR-1896 can be used to study heart failure and vascular dysfunction.

Nicorandil (SG-75)(Ikorel) acts by relaxing the smooth muscle of the blood vessels, especially those of the venous system. It undertakes this through two methods. Firstly, by activating potassium channels, and secondly by donating nitric oxide to activate the enzyme guanylate cyclase. Guanylate cyclase causes activation of cGMP leading to both arterial and venous vasodilatation by de-phosphorylation of the myosin light chain.

Cyclandelate (BS 572), a direct-acting smooth muscle relaxant, is used to dilate blood vessels.

Theophylline monohydrate (Quibron) appears to inhibit phosphodiesterase and prostaglandin production, regulate calcium flux and intracellular calcium distribution, and antagonize adenosine. Theophylline monohydrate is a natural alkaloid derivative of xanthine isolated from the plants Camellia sinensis and Coffea arabica. Physiologically, this agent relaxes the bronchial smooth muscle, produces vasodilation (except in cerebral vessels), stimulates the CNS, stimulates the cardiac muscle, induces diuresis, and increases gastric acid secretion; it may also suppress inflammation and improve contractility of the diaphragm.

Zolmitriptan (311C90) selectively binds to and activates serotonin (5-HT) 1B receptors expressed in intracranial arteries and 5-HT 1D receptors located on peripheral trigeminal sensory nerve terminals in the meninges and central terminals in brainstem sensory nuclei. Zolmitriptan is a member of the triptan class of agents with anti-migraine properties. Receptor binding results in constriction of cranial vessels, reduction of vessel pulsation and inhibition of nociceptive transmission, thereby providing relief of migraine headaches. Zolmitriptan may also relieve migraine headaches by inhibition of pro-inflammatory neuropeptide release.

Tolazoline (Benzalolin), a non-selective competitive α-adrenergic receptor antagonist, is used as a vasodilator to treat spasms of peripheral blood vessels. It has also been used successfully as an antidote to reverse the severe peripheral vasoconstriction as a result of overdose with certain 5-HT2A agonist drugs.

4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol (P-Methylolphenol) exhibits beneficial effects in cerebral ischemic injury, has neuroprotective effect through upregulation of Nrf2, Prdx6, and PDI expression via the PI3K/Akt pathway. 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol inhibit the development of new blood vessels by targeting multiple mechanisms of the angiogenic process, may as a promising candidate for the establishment of anti-angiogenic treatment strategies in cancer therapy.

Gadopentetate dimeglumine is used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to allow blood vessels, organs and other non-bone tissues to be visualized more clearly.Gadopentetate dimeglumine induces atrophy of spermatogonia.

Inositol nicotinate (Mesotal) has the effect of lowering cholesterol and expanding peripheral blood vessels for hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.

1. Cinnamaldehyde (Cinnamic Aldehyde) has antipyretic activity. 2. Cinnamaldehyde is a sedative agent. 3. Cinnamaldehyde inhibits invasive capabilities of MDA-MB-435S cells was correlated with down-regulating the expression of miR-27a. 4. Cinnamaldehyde induces the generation of reactive oxygen species and exerts vasodilator and anticancer effects. 5. Cinnamaldehyde appears to be a promising candidate as an adjuvant in combination therapy with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin (OXA), two chemotherapeutic agents used in CRC treatment. The possible mechanisms of its action may involve the regulation of drugmetabolizing genes. 6. Cinnamaldehyde plays a certain role in inhibiting the occurrence and progression of melanoma and its action mechanism may be manifested by inhibiting expression of VEGF and HIF-α, thus blood vessel simulation and formation of new blood vessels of melanoma cells, and growth of tumors accordingly.

(±)-Naringenin (Naringenine) is a natural product. It displays vasorelaxant effect on endothelium-denuded vessels via the activation of BKCa channels in myocytes.

Radretumab (also known as L19SIP) is a fully human monoclonal antibody in a small immunoprotein (SIP) format that specifically targets the extra-domain B (ED-B) of fibronectin. ED-B is a crucial marker of angiogenesis, highly expressed in the extracellular matrix of neovasculature within various solid tumors but nearly absent in normal adult tissues. Radretumab is typically labeled with radioisotopes such as 131I to deliver ionizing radiation directly to tumor sites through high-affinity binding to tumor vessels. In clinical trials, it is investigated for treating solid tumors and associated brain metastases.

Tetrahydrozoline (Tetryzoline), an alpha agonist, have an effect on the constriction of conjunctival blood vessels. This contributes to relieve the redness of the eye resulted from minor ocular irritants.

Dacarbazine citrate is an alkylating agent used to treat cancers of the lymphatic system and malignant melanoma (a type of skin cancer) in patients with certain conditions: islet cell carcinoma (part of the pancreas) Soft tissue sarcoma (cancer of muscles

Pinacidil (P 1134) is a guanidine that opens potassium channels and directly dilates peripheral blood vessels in small arteries, lowering blood pressure and peripheral resistance and producing fluid retention.

Fedovapagon (VA106483) is a selective and potent agonist of the vasopressin V2 receptor (V2R) that inhibits the growth of intersegmental vessels in zebrafish. It can be used to study overactive bladder, nocturia, and painful bladder syndromes.
