Biochem/physiol Actions

Enalapril, the ethyl ester of enalaprilat exhibits slight pharmacological activity until it is hydrolyzed in the liver to enalaprilat. Enalaprilat, a IV form of an angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACE) prevents the transformation of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor.
Enalaprilat is an inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), antihypertensive, and a Bradykinin B1 receptor activator. Enalaprilat has nM potency versus ACE and also activates B1 receptors to release NO.

Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) is a drug target and an effective bradykinin (BK)-inactivating ectopeptidase. We exploited a recently described [(3)H]enalaprilat binding assay to quantify the full dynamic range of ACE expression in intact human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) stimulated

Severe sepsis is frequently associated with microcirculatory abnormalities despite seemingly adequate hemodynamic resuscitation. As increased serum angiotensin II levels may play a role in this dysfunction, we evaluated the microcirculatory effects of enalaprilat in an experimental model of septic shock.

The limited antifibrotic effect of therapeutic angiotensin blockade, the fact that angiotensin blockade dramatically elevates renin levels, and recent evidence that renin has an angiotensin-independent, receptor-mediated profibrotic action led us to hypothesize that combining renin receptor inhibition and ANG II

Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) may downregulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). We examined whether enalapril affects MMP-2, MMP-8, and MMP-9 levels and activity, and their endogenous inhibitors (tissue inhibitors of MMPs, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2) levels in hypertensive patients. Moreover, we assessed the
