losartan and Hypertension, Portal

losartan has been researched along with Hypertension, Portal in 24 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

Hypertension, Portal: Abnormal increase of resistance to blood flow within the hepatic PORTAL SYSTEM, frequently seen in LIVER CIRRHOSIS and conditions with obstruction of the PORTAL VEIN.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"We performed a longitudinal study that included 23 consecutive patients with cirrhosis and esophageal varices who received 25 mg/day of losartan during 12 wk."3.73A1166C angiotensin II type 1 receptor gene polymorphism may predict hemodynamic response to losartan in patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension. ( Castaño, G; García, SI; González, C; Pirola, CJ; Sookoian, S; Viudez, P, 2005)
"Advanced stages of portal hypertension are characterized by generalized vasodilatation and a hyperdynamic syndrome that leads to complications such as hepatopulmonary syndrome."1.36Losartan prevents portal hypertension-induced, redox-mediated endothelial dysfunction in the mesenteric artery in rats. ( Boehm, N; Bronner, C; Chataigneau, T; Dal-Ros, S; Gény, B; Oswald-Mammosser, M; Pestrikova, T; Schini-Kerth, VB; Schott, C, 2010)
" We aimed to study both the systemic and portal hemodynamics, and tolerability after chronic administration of losartan, an ANG II receptor antagonist."1.32Chronic administration of losartan, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, is not effective in reducing portal pressure in patients with preascitic cirrhosis. ( Hayes, PC; Johnston, N; Lui, HF; Therapondos, G; Tripathi, D; Webb, DJ, 2004)
" Higher dosage of losartan had deleterious effects in BDL rats."1.31Hemodynamic and antifibrotic effects of losartan in rats with liver fibrosis and/or portal hypertension. ( Calès, P; Chappard, D; Croquet, V; Douay, O; Gallois, Y; Moal, F; Oberti, F; Roux, J; Veal, N; Vuillemin, E; Wang, J, 2002)
"Portal hypertension was induced by partial portal vein ligation 3 weeks before study."1.29Loss of angiotensin-II receptors in portal hypertensive rabbits. ( Aguilera, G; Burns, RC; Cahill, PA; Sitzmann, JV; Wu, Y, 1995)
