candesartan cilexetil and Cardiomegaly

candesartan cilexetil has been researched along with Cardiomegaly in 18 studies

candesartan cilexetil: a prodrug which is metabolized to an active form candesartan to exert its biological effects

Cardiomegaly: Enlargement of the HEART, usually indicated by a cardiothoracic ratio above 0.50. Heart enlargement may involve the right, the left, or both HEART VENTRICLES or HEART ATRIA. Cardiomegaly is a nonspecific symptom seen in patients with chronic systolic heart failure (HEART FAILURE) or several forms of CARDIOMYOPATHIES.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The aim was to investigate changes in cardiac transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1), fibronectin, and collagen types I and III mRNA levels in isoprenaline induced cardiac hypertrophy, and the effects of delapril, an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, and TCV-116, an angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist, on this hypertrophy."7.69Transforming growth factor beta 1 and extracellular matrix gene expression in isoprenaline induced cardiac hypertrophy: effects of inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system. ( Iwao, H; Kim, S; Omura, T; Takeda, T; Takeuchi, K, 1994)
"To determine whether angiotensin II participates in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and impairs coronary circulation in DOCA/salt hypertension, DOCA hypertensive rats were treated with candesartan cilexetil for 8 wk."7.69Chronic angiotensin blockade with candesartan cilexetil in DOCA/salt hypertensive rats reduces cardiac hypertrophy and coronary resistance without affecting blood pressure. ( Fujita, H; Itoh, H; Kawa, T; Miki, S; Morimoto, S; Nakagawa, M; Nakata, T; Sasaki, S; Takeda, K; Uchida, A, 1997)

( Ikeda, J; Miura, S; Nawata, J; Ohno, I; Shirato, K; Suzuki, J, 1999)

( Iwao, H; Kim, S, 1997)
" Stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive Izumo strain rats were divided into four groups, treated with vehicle, the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) delapril (40 mg/kg per d), the angiotensin receptor antagonist (AT1R-Ant) candesartan cilexetil (1 mg/kg per d), or the vasodilator hydralazine (25 mg/kg per d) from weaning to puberty (3 to 10 wk of age), and then monitored without treatment for 6 mo."3.71Temporary treatment of prepubescent rats with angiotensin inhibitors suppresses the development of hypertensive nephrosclerosis. ( Hayashi, M; Nakaya, H; Saruta, T; Sasamura, H, 2001)

"Therefore, for the treatment of hypertension it is important to understand the mechanism of cardiac hypertrophy and to establish effective pharmaceutical interventions."2.40Role of the renin-angiotensin system in cardiac hypertrophy. ( Komuro, I; Yamazaki, T; Yazaki, Y, 1999)
"Treatment with imidapril significantly prevented the L-NAME-induced increase in the gene expression and immunoreactivity of PAI-1, but candesartan cilexetil showed no such effect."1.31Differential effects of imidapril and candesartan cilexetil on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 expression induced by prolonged inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis in rat hearts. ( Egashira, K; Katoh, M; Mitsui, T; Narita, H; Takeshita, A, 2000)
"Cardiac hypertrophy was reduced by all three treatments, but to a lesser extent by hydralazine (treatment study), and this regression of cardiac hypertrophy persisted only with both types of RAS inhibition (withdrawal study)."1.31Persistent cardiovascular effects of chronic renin-angiotensin system inhibition following withdrawal in adult spontaneously hypertensive rats. ( Paull, JR; Widdop, RE, 2001)
"Cardiac hypertrophy was induced by constricting the abdominal aorta above the renal arteries."1.30Pressure overload per se rather than cardiac angiotensin converting enzyme activity may be important in the development of rat cardiac hypertrophy.
