Abstract:
:Vasopeptidase inhibitors are a new class of drugs capable of inhibiting both angiotensin-converting enzyme and neutral endopeptidase 24.11. This involves simultaneous inhibition with a single molecule of two key enzymes, ACE and NEP, which are both involved in the regulation of cardiovascular homeostasis in many ways. This includes metabolism of several vasoactive peptides and their clearance from the circulation, therefore contributing to neurohumoral modulation, which might have therapeutic advantages in the prevention of endothelial dysfunction in hypertension.
