Epidermal growth factor is a potent inhibitor of renin secretion.
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is not only a cell mitogen but a potent vasoconstrictor that shares many properties with angiotensin II. Because EGF is localized in the kidney, we have studied the direct effects of EGF on renin secretion using both static incubations and perifusions of rat renal cortical slices. EGF at 5 x 10(-9) M significantly inhibited renin secretion in static incubations (co...
متن کاملA newly synthesized bifunctional inhibitor, W-77, enhances adriamycin activity against human ovarian carcinoma cells.
A newly synthesized calmodulin antagonist, (S)-P-(2-aminoethyloxy)-N-[2-(4-benzyloxy-carbonylpiperazinyl++ +)-1-(P-methoxybenzyl)ethyl]-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide dihydrochloride (W-77), acts as a calcium-independent uncompetitive antagonist which binds to glutathione-S-transferase (GST). We purified GST from human placenta using drug affinity chromatography on a column of W-77 coupled with Sep...
متن کاملA highly potent and long-acting oral inhibitor of human renin.
An orally active renin inhibitor, ES 6864 (N-[(2R)-3-morpholinocarbonyl-2-(1-naphthylmethyl)propionyl]-(4- thiazolyl)-L-alanyl-cyclostatine-(2-morpholinoethyl)amide), was synthesized. ES 6864 was found to be a highly potent inhibitor of human renin with a Ki value of 7.3 x 10(-9) M. The compound competitively inhibited human renin. The inhibitor was also potent against monkey renin but was less...
متن کاملNewly Synthesized Vasorelaxant
Effects of ER-001533 (ER), a newly synthesized vasorelaxant, on the membrane currents were examined in single ventricular cells of guinea pigs. The patch-clamp technique was used in the "whole-cell" and "inside-out" patch configurations. In the whole-cell clamp condition, ER induced a time-independent K'-dominant current, which was inhibited by glibenclamide (1-3 ,uM), suggesting that ER activa...
متن کاملOnion, a Potent Inhibitor of Xantine Oxidase
Onion (Allium Cepa) contains high levels of flavonoids. Although there are many studies indicating the inhibitory effects of flavonoids on xanthine oxidase, there is no report on the effect of onion on this enzyme. Therefore, in the present study, the inhibitory effects of onion on xanthine oxidase are investigated. Fresh filtered juice of onion was prepared and its inhibitory effect on guine...
