چکیده
2-n-Butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxy-methyl-1-[(2'-(1H)-tetrazol-5-yl)biph enyl-4- yl)methyl]imidazol potassium salt (DuP 753) is a nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist that inhibits the contractile effects of angiotensin II competitively and shows pA2 values of 8.27 on the rabbit aorta and jugular vein, 8.66 on the rat portal vein and stomach, 8.19 on the rat urinary bladder, and 8.36 on human colon, ileum, and urinary bladder. This agent (more than 10(-5) M) exhibits no agonistic activity and does not affect the contractile effects of norepinephrine, acetylcholine, bradykinin, desArg9-bradykinin, substance P, neurokinin A, neurokinin B, or bombesin in the various tissues. The present results demonstrate that DuP 753 is a potent nonpeptide antagonist with high affinity, specificity, and selectivity for the angiotensin receptor.

Hypotensive action of DuP 753, an angiotensin II antagonist, in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonists: X.
In conscious 18-21-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rats, DuP 753, a nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist, given orally at 3 and 10 mg/kg or intravenously at 3, 10, and 30 mg/kg, reduced blood pressure dose dependently. It did not alter heart rate at these doses. At 10 mg/kg i.v., DuP 753 decreased blood pressure significantly for at least 24 hours, suggesting a long duration of the...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study was to assess the inhibitory effect of DuP 753, an orally active angiotensin II receptor antagonist, on the pressor action of exogenous angiotensin I and II in healthy male volunteers. METHODS AND RESULTS In the first study (single-dose study), eight volunteers were included in a 2-day protocol repeated four times at 1-week intervals. In each phase,...

The purpose of this study was to examine in vivo the importance of angiotensin subtype 1 (AT1) versus subtype 2 (AT2) receptors in spontaneously hypertensive (hypertensive) versus normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (control) rats. Intravenous infusions of DuP 753, a selective AT1 receptor antagonist, abolished the pressor responses to intravenous infusions of angiotensin II in both strains, and the pote...

Angiotensin II (AII) elicits a positive inotropic response in cardiac muscle preparations from several species including humans. The purpose of this study was to characterize the AII binding sites and inotropic responses in rabbit ventricle using the selective AII receptor antagonists/ligands, DuP 753 (AT1) and PD 121981 (AT2). Biphasic displacement of specific 125I-Sar1,Ile8-AII binding was ob...
متن کاملCentral DuP 753 does not lower blood pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Oral administration of the angiotensin II receptor subtype 1 (AT1) antagonist DuP 753 causes long-lasting lowering of mean arterial pressure in spontaneously hypertensive rats. We examined whether the antihypertensive action of DuP 753 is a result of inhibition of brain angiotensin II. In normal spontaneously hypertensive rats, we found that intracerebroventricular DuP 753 (10 micrograms) block...
