Target snapshot

SOC: Soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator (SOC: Soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator) — Actelion. Soluble guanylate cyclase stimulators directly activate the enzyme soluble guanylate cyclase to increase intracellular cyclic GMP levels, promoting vasodilation and reducing pulmonary vascular resistance.
