Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Losartan carboxaldehyde is an intermediate aldehyde metabolite of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist, losartan (Item No. 10006594). It does not block angiotensin receptors, but instead inhibits endothelial cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 expression, thereby exerting anti-inflammatory actions.

Product Data
Biological target:
EXP3179 is an important intermediate aldehyde metabolite of Losartan.
In vitro activity:
In TGF-β1-stimulated fibroblasts, EXP3179 inhibited CTGF and LOX expression and activity with lower IC50 values than EXP3174. Reference: Sci Rep. 2017 Feb 3;7:41865. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28157237/
In vivo activity:
In rats treated with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), administration of EXP3179 fully prevented LOX, CCL and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) increase, as well as fibrosis, without normalization of blood pressure (BP).
