Biological target:
Olmesartan (RNH-6270) is an angiotensin II receptor (AT1R) antagonist used to treat high blood pressure.
In vitro activity:
To determine the roles of olmesartan in endothelial cell injuries during ox-LDL exposure, cellular vitality, nitrogen monoxide (NO) and Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) synthesis were. The results showed ox-LDL significantly increased the LDH synthesis and decreased cell vitality and NO synthesis in neonatal rat endothelial cells (Table 1). The addition of olmesartan to ox-LDL-stimulated endothelial cells significantly alleviated all the above harmful effects, including decreased cell vitality, increased LDH secretion, upregulated p-38 MAPK and overexpression of apoptotic genes such as Caspase-3 and Bax (Figure 1). These results indicated antiapoptotic effects of olmesartan on endothelial cell injuries induced by ox-LDL in vitro. Reference: Int J Mol Sci. 2012;13(2):1512-23. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22408405/
In vivo activity:
To determine the roles of olmesartan against ox-LDL insults in endothelial cells in vivo, mice were treated with ox-LDL (8.4 mg/kg/day), olmesartan (3 mg/kg/day) or both of them. Of course, the dose of ox-LDL at 8.4 mg/kg/day was insufficient to elevate the BP of mice. Three weeks later, it was found that BP was not significantly different among all groups of mice (Figure 2A). Interestingly, olmesartan significantly blunted the cellular injuries in terms of cell viability during the exposure of ox-LDL in vivo (Figure 2B–E). Moreover, treatment with olmesartan significantly decreased the gene expressions of Bax and Caspase-3 while increasing Bcl-2 levels in ox-LDL-treated mice. These results suggested olmesartan could protect endothelial cells against the injuries induced by ox-LDL in vivo.
