1 11230314 As measured by quantitative autoradiography, AT(1) receptor expression in the medulla was decreased in GK compared with Wistar rats, whereas cortical AT(1) receptor expression, medullary and cortical angiotensin type 2 (AT(2)) receptor expressions, and adrenal ACE and neutral endopeptidase expressions were unchanged.
2 11910307 The effects of combined inhibition of neutral endopeptidase (NEP) with either angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), or endothelin-converting enzyme (ECE) on blood pressure, urinary albumin excretion and heart weight were explored in experimental diabetes.
3 12941780 In hearts from citrate-treated control rats, angiotensin II-stimulated [(3)H]phenylalanine incorporation and atrial natriuretic peptide and beta-myosin heavy chain mRNA expression were prevented by B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), bradykinin, the ACE inhibitor ramiprilat, and the neutral endopeptidase inhibitor candoxatrilat.
4 16614731 By inhibiting NEP, CGS 35601 also prevents the degradation of peptidic vasodilators such as bradykinin (BK), natriuretic peptides (NPs) and adrenomedullin (ADM) and, hence, modulates the secondary release of other vasoactive mediators such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandins.
5 16787929 We demonstrate that matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) can degrade fAbeta and that this ability is not shared by other sAbeta-degrading enzymes examined, including endothelin-converting enzyme, insulin-degrading enzyme, and neprilysin. fAbeta was decreased in samples incubated with MMP-9 compared with other proteases, assessed using thioflavin-T.
6 19536347 The purpose of this study was to determine whether AVE7688 a drug that inhibits both angiotensin converting enzyme and neutral endopeptidase activity protects vascular and nerve functions in an animal model of metabolic syndrome.
7 19713966 Specifically, next generation ARBs are becoming available that are intended to not only antagonize AT(1) receptors, but also block endothelin receptors, function as nitric oxide donors, inhibit neprilysin activity and increase natriuretic peptide levels, or stimulate the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma).
8 20687610 Whereas specific DPP-IV inhibitors have been developed, NEP 24.11 targets multiple sites in the GLP-1 sequence, which makes it difficult to block.
9 20709939 Similarly to GLP-1, liraglutide was cleaved in vitro by DPP-IV in the Ala8-Glu9 position of the N terminus and degraded by NEP into several metabolites.
10 20709939 The chromatographic retention time of DPP-IV-truncated liraglutide correlated well with the primary human plasma metabolite [GLP-1(9-37)], and some of the NEP degradation products eluted very close to both plasma metabolites.
11 20849865 Previously we demonstrated that inhibition of neutral endopeptidase (NEP), a protease that degrades vaso- and neuro-active peptides, and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) with a vasopeptidase inhibitor improves vascular and neural function in diabetic rat models.
12 20849865 These studies suggest that NEP plays a role in regulating nerve function in insulin-deficient diabetes and DIO.
