Description:

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

Nilvadipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB) used for the treatment of hypertension and chronic major cerebral artery occlusion. Pathohistochemical studies have revealed that the volume of the infarction in the middle cerebral artery occlusion model could be decreased by nilvadipine. Nilvadipine has also been studied as a possible treatment for Alzheimer's Disease.

Product Data
Biological target:
Nilvadipine is a potent calcium channel antagonist, and the IC50 value is around 0.1 nM.
In vitro activity:
The chemotactic activities of inflammatory cell products for rat aortic smooth muscle cells (SMC) were examined in modified Boyden chambers. The chemotaxis, irrespective of the attractants used, was strongly inhibited by nilvadipine, a potent calcium antagonist, and the IC50 values were around 1 x 10(-10) M. Reference: Atherosclerosis. 1988 Aug;72(2-3):213-9. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/2850808/
In vivo activity:
The antiatherogenic activity of FR34235 (Nilvadipine), a calcium antagonist, was examined in rabbits with carotid arteries sheathed with polyethylene cuffs, and compared with that of nifedipine, verapamil and diltiazem. FR34235 dose-dependently inhibited the cuff-induced intimal thickening, and was more potent than the other calcium antagonists, whose order of potency was nifedipine, diltiazem and verapamil. Reference: Atherosclerosis. 1987 Apr;64(2-3):255-61. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3606723/
