losartan and Cardiomyopathy, Dilated

losartan has been researched along with Cardiomyopathy, Dilated in 19 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

Cardiomyopathy, Dilated: A form of CARDIAC MUSCLE disease that is characterized by ventricular dilation, VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION, and HEART FAILURE. Risk factors include SMOKING; ALCOHOL DRINKING; HYPERTENSION; INFECTION; PREGNANCY; and mutations in the LMNA gene encoding LAMIN TYPE A, a NUCLEAR LAMINA protein.

"The influence of chronic administration of losartan on gap junction conductance (gj), conduction velocity and interstitial fibrosis was investigated in the failing heart of 4-month-old cardiomyopathic hamsters (TO-2)."3.73Chronic blockade of angiotensin II AT1-receptors increased cell-to-cell communication, reduced fibrosis and improved impulse propagation in the failing heart. ( De Mello, WC; Specht, P, 2006)

( Bourke, JP; Bueser, T; Quinlivan, R, 2018)
"We treated a dilated cardiomyopathy-linked mouse model expressing a mutant tropomyosin (Tm-E54K) for 3 months with either TRV120067, a β-arrestin 2-biased ligand of the angiotensin II receptor, or losartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker."1.46Long-Term Biased β-Arrestin Signaling Improves Cardiac Structure and Function in Dilated Cardiomyopathy. ( Cowan, CL; Li, J; Russell, B; Ryba, DM; Solaro, RJ; Wolska, BM, 2017)
"Here, we determined that dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in fibrillin 1-deficient mice is a primary manifestation resulting from ECM-induced abnormal mechanosignaling by cardiomyocytes."1.40Abnormal muscle mechanosignaling triggers cardiomyopathy in mice with Marfan syndrome. ( Bénard, L; Carta, L; Chemaly, ER; Chiu, E; Cook, JR; Costa, KD; Hajjar, RJ; Hampton, TG; Ramirez, F; Rao, SK; Yurchenco, P, 2014)

( Arsenault, M; Beaudoin, J; Champetier, S; Couet, J; Lachance, D; Plante, E; Roussel, E, 2009)
"Coxiella burnetii myocarditis is a rare but severe clinical form of acute Q fever."1.31[Acute myocardial failure in a young man: Q-fever myocarditis]. ( Climent, V; López, I; Manso, MI; Murcia, J; Reus, S; Tello, A, 2002)
"Losartan treatment was associated with a modest reduction of cardiac 4-hydroxyproline concentration, and a significant reduction of both MMP-1 and MMP-2 activities."1.31Effect of chronic AT(1) receptor blockade on cardiac Smad overexpression in hereditary cardiomyopathic hamsters.
