losartan and Hypertrophy, Right Ventricular

losartan has been researched along with Hypertrophy, Right Ventricular in 7 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

Hypertrophy, Right Ventricular: Enlargement of the RIGHT VENTRICLE of the heart. This increase in ventricular mass is often attributed to PULMONARY HYPERTENSION and is a contributor to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Losartan treatment improved PVS-associated pulmonary hypertension and intimal hyperplasia and might be a beneficial prophylactic therapy for patients at high risk of developing PVS after pulmonary vein surgery."3.80Losartan ameliorates "upstream" pulmonary vein vasculopathy in a piglet model of pulmonary vein stenosis. ( Caldarone, CA; Coles, JG; Fu, YY; Ide, H; Kato, H; Maynes, JT; Teichert, AM; Weisel, RD; Zhu, J, 2014)
"The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of prophylactic treatment with the angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist losartan on right ventricular hypertrophy and cardiac angiotensin 1-converting enzyme (ACE) activity in a rat model of monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension."3.69Effect of losartan on right ventricular hypertrophy and cardiac angiotensin I-converting enzyme activity in pulmonary hypertensive rats. ( Fernandez-Alfonso, MS; Ganten, D; Kreutz, R; Paul, M, 1996)
"Treatment with bisoprolol slowed the heart rate, and treatment with losartan lowered mean arterial pressure, confirming adequate dosing, but none of the treatments improved RV function or arrested the progression of RV hypertrophy and failure compared with vehicle."1.40Effects of bisoprolol and losartan treatment in the hypertrophic and failing right heart. ( Andersen, A; Andersen, S; Bogaard, HJ; de Man, FS; Holmboe, S; Nielsen, JM; Nielsen-Kudsk, JE; Ringgaard, S; Schultz, JG; Vildbrad, MD; Vonk-Noordegraaf, A, 2014)
"Hypoxia produced right ventricular hypertrophy of about 100% after 3 wk, which reversed with normoxia recovery."1.31Modulation of angiotensin II receptor expression during development and regression of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. ( Adamy, C; Adnot, S; Chassagne, C; Dubois-Randé, JL; Eddahibi, S; Marotte, F; Rideau, D; Samuel, JL; Teiger, E, 2000)
