Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor. Inhibits the formation of angiotensin II, a bioactive peptide that stimulates angiogenesis and increases microvessel density.
The emergence of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) capable of hydrolysing a broad spectrum of β-lactam antibiotics is particularly concerning for the future treatment of bacterial infections. This work describes the discovery of lead compounds for the development of new inhibitors using a

The renal distal tubule Na-Cl cotransporter (NCC) reabsorbs <10% of the filtered Na(+) but is a key control point for blood pressure regulation by angiotensin II (ANG II), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), and thiazide diuretics. This study aimed to determine
The production of β-lactamases is an effective strategy by which pathogenic bacteria can develop resistance against β-lactam antibiotics. While inhibitors of serine-β-lactamases are widely used in combination therapy with β-lactam antibiotics, there are no clinically available inhibitors of metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs)

Lung cancer is the most common form of cancer in the world, and 90% of patients die from their disease. The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are used widely as antihypertensive agents, and it has been suggested that they decrease

The identification of novel endogenous and exogenous molecules acting in the complex mechanism of regulating the vascular tonus has always been of great interest. The discovery of bradykinin (1949) and the bradykinin-potentiating peptides (1965) had a pivotal influence in the
