candesartan and Muscle Relaxation

candesartan has been researched along with Muscle Relaxation in 2 studies

candesartan: a nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist
candesartan : A benzimidazolecarboxylic acid that is 1H-benzimidazole-7-carboxylic acid substituted by an ethoxy group at position 2 and a ({2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl}methyl) group at position 1. It is a angiotensin receptor antagonist used for the treatment of hypertension.

Muscle Relaxation: That phase of a muscle twitch during which a muscle returns to a resting position.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To determine whether angiotensin receptor blockade decreases vascular tone in heart failure by improving endothelial-dependent vasorelaxation and increasing nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, we treated infarcted adult male Sprague-Dawley rats with candesartan for 7 days or 8 weeks (10 mg/kg/day in drinking water)."3.72Angiotensin subtype 1 rReceptor (AT1) blockade improves vasorelaxation in heart failure by up-regulation of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase via activation of the AT2 receptor. ( Gaballa, M; Goldman, S; Thai, H; Wollmuth, J, 2003)
"Rats with adenine-induced chronic renal failure (A-CRF) develop metabolic and cardiovascular abnormalities resembling those in patients with chronic kidney disease."1.39Rats with adenine-induced chronic renal failure develop low-renin, salt-sensitive hypertension and increased aortic stiffness. ( Carlström, M; Grimberg, E; Guron, G; Johansson, ME; Lundberg, JO; Lundgren, J; Nguy, L; Nilsson, H; Teerlink, T, 2013)
