losartan and Aortic Coarctation

losartan has been researched along with Aortic Coarctation in 11 studies

Losartan: An antagonist of ANGIOTENSIN TYPE 1 RECEPTOR with antihypertensive activity due to the reduced pressor effect of ANGIOTENSIN II.
losartan : A biphenylyltetrazole where a 1,1'-biphenyl group is attached at the 5-position and has an additional trisubstituted imidazol-1-ylmethyl group at the 4'-position

Aortic Coarctation: A birth defect characterized by the narrowing of the AORTA that can be of varying degree and at any point from the transverse arch to the iliac bifurcation. Aortic coarctation causes arterial HYPERTENSION before the point of narrowing and arterial HYPOTENSION beyond the narrowed portion.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In pregnancy there is an attenuated response to vasoconstrictors and pressor agents, including Angiotensin II (Ang II)."3.73Renal vascular responses in an experimental model of preeclampsia. ( Bobadilla Lugo, RA; López Sanchez, P; Pérez-Alvarez, VM; Robledo, LA, 2005)
"To assess the role of angiotensin (ANG) II in both the increased heart rate (HR) and the impaired baroreceptor reflex control of HR that characterize the chronic phase of coarctation hypertension (CH), we compared basal HR, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and baroreflex sensitivity of coarcted hypertensive rats treated chronically with losartan, captopril, or vehicle."3.69Losartan improves baroreflex control of heart rate of coarcted hypertensive rats. ( Leomil Neto, M; Michelini, LC; Pontieri, V; Santos, CM, 1995)
"The role of angiotensin II via the angiotensin type 1 or type 2 receptor in the development of cardiac hypertrophy was determined in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to coarctation of the abdominal aorta."3.69Angiotensin receptor regulates cardiac hypertrophy and transforming growth factor-beta 1 expression. ( Everett, AD; Fisher, A; Gomez, RA; Tufro-McReddie, A, 1994)
" NG-Nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (3 x 10(-4) mol/L) increased tension (82 +/- 11% of the response to 120 mmol/L potassium chloride) in rings of thoracic aorta taken from hypertensive rats 7 to 14 days after aortic coarctation, whereas rings of abdominal aorta from below the coarctation were unresponsive, as were rings of thoracic aorta from rats with deoxycorticosterone-salt-induced hypertension and from the corresponding normotensive controls of either model of hypertension."3.69Vascular responsiveness to nitric oxide synthesis inhibition in hypertensive rats. ( Dick, LB; Guan, H; Lin, L; Miller, KB; Nasjletti, A; Pucci, ML, 1994)
" Pretreatment with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester did not interfere with the vasodepressor effect of sodium nitroprusside or prazosin in rats with aortic coarctation-induced hypertension or with the blood pressure reduction caused by discontinuation of an infusion of phenylephrine in rats made hypertensive by long-term administration of this drug."1.29Nitric oxide and the depressor response to angiotensin blockade in hypertension. ( Cachofeiro, V; Guan, H; Kaminski, PM; Nasjletti, A; Pucci, ML; Wolin, MS, 1996)
