candesartan cilexetil and Nephrosclerosis

candesartan cilexetil has been researched along with Nephrosclerosis in 5 studies

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

Nephrosclerosis: Hardening of the KIDNEY due to infiltration by fibrous connective tissue (FIBROSIS), usually caused by renovascular diseases or chronic HYPERTENSION. Nephrosclerosis leads to renal ISCHEMIA.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We investigated the effects of an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1)-receptor antagonist on experimental cardiac hypertrophy, vascular thickening and nephrosclerosis, in order to determine the involvement of this receptor in the development of cardiovascular and renal damage."4.79Involvement of angiotensin II in cardiovascular and renal injury: effects of an AT1-receptor antagonist on gene expression and the cellular phenotype. ( 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)
"To investigate the role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) on nephrosclerosis in salt-loaded, partially nephrectomized spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), we evaluated the effects of angiotensin II (ANGII) blockade on the progression of nephrosclerosis with an angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1rec) antagonist [TCV-116 (TCV)] and an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor (enalapril) at the doses equivalent in reducing systemic blood pressure (BP)."3.69Renal responses to angiotensin receptor antagonist and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor in partially nephrectomized spontaneously hypertensive rats. ( Ikenaga, H; Kanno, Y; Okada, H; Saruta, T; Suzuki, H, 1995)
"Treatment with candesartan cilexetil caused significant decreases in blood pressure and amelioration of proteinuria and renal histological scores in the SHRSP/Izm rats."1.31Effects of AT1 receptor antagonist on proteoglycan gene expression in hypertensive rats. ( Nakaya, H; Saruta, T; Sasamura, H; Shimizu-Hirota, R, 2001)
