Description:

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

Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (commonly called an ARB, or angiotensin receptor blocker), that is selective for the type I (AT1) angiotensin receptor. Valsartan is mainly used for treatment of high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and to increase the chances of living longer after a heart attack. Valsartan is used to treat high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and to reduce death for people with left ventricular dysfunction after having had a heart attack.

Biological target:
Valsartan (CGP 48933) is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist.
In vitro activity:
Exposure of HPMCs to AngII increased the protein expression levels of p-mTOR, p-4EBP1, and p-S6K1, as assessed by Western blot, and HG had the similar role as the AngII. Cotreatment with valsartan ameliorated the HG-induced or AngII-induced upregulation of components of the mTORC1 pathway (Figure 6(a) and (b)). To further determine the mechanisms associated with the regulation of ECM accumulation by valsartan, this study subsequently analyzed the effect of the specific mTOR agonist MHY1485 on valsartan-mediated α-SMA and collagen I expression. The data showed that, compared with valsartan, MHY1485 dramatically increased the expression of α-SMA and collagen I, even in the presence of valsartan, as determined by Western blot (Figure 6(c)and (d)). Taken together, these results suggest that the protective effect of valsartan against PF is related to the downregulation of the activity of the mTORC1 pathway.

In vivo activity:
The results of the current study indicated that: 1) valsartan at a dose of 20 mg/kg/day treated balloon injured rats for both 14 and 28 days significantly inhibited the neointimal hyperplasia and reduced the aortic SRSF1 expression; 2) valsartan decreased the aortic angiotensin II and iNOS levels while increased the aortic eNOS level; and 3) valsartan downregulated the TLR4 and AT1 receptor while upregulated the AT2 receptor mRNA and protein expression. Valsartan also decreased the aortic p-ERK protein expression. These findings suggest that the therapeutic potential of valsartan in attenuating neointimal hyperplasia and inhibiting the TLR4-iNOS-ERK-AT1 receptor pathway and SRSF1 expression in balloon-injured rat aorta.
