nicardipine and Aging

nicardipine has been researched along with Aging in 16 studies

Nicardipine: A potent calcium channel blockader with marked vasodilator action. It has antihypertensive properties and is effective in the treatment of angina and coronary spasms without showing cardiodepressant effects. It has also been used in the treatment of asthma and enhances the action of specific antineoplastic agents.
nicardipine : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)- and (S)-nicardipine. It is a calcium channel blocker which is used to treat hypertension.
2-[benzyl(methyl)amino]ethyl methyl 2,6-dimethyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarboxylate : A dihydropyridine that is 1,4-dihydropyridine substituted by a methyl, {2-[benzyl(methyl)amino]ethoxy}carbonyl, 3-nitrophenyl, methoxycarbonyl and methyl groups at positions 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively.

Aging: The gradual irreversible changes in structure and function of an organism that occur as a result of the passage of time.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The effects of omega-conotoxin (CTX) GVIA, omega-agatoxin (Aga) IVA, and the dihydropyridine nicardipine were studied on synaptic transmission in the hippocampus during aging."3.69Calcium channel types mediating synaptic transmission during aging. ( Griffith, WH; Hall, SC, 1997)
"Nicardipine has no clinically significant negative inotropic effect."2.39Concomitant diseases in elderly hypertensives: the position of nicardipine. ( Zannad, F, 1996)
"Pretreatment with nicardipine prevented the inhibitory effect of exogenous calcium on the testicular CR activity in 3-week-old rats, indicating that the suppressing action of calcium on the enzyme activity was mediated by the entry of extracellular calcium via calcium channels."1.29Effects of age and calcium ion on testis carbonyl reductase in rats. ( Fujii, T; Inazu, N, 1993)
" In conclusion, the present study suggests that there is an altered Ca++ homeostasis in the SAMP8 brain that is effectively attenuated by chronic administration of nimodipine and nicardipine."1.29Alterations in calcium antagonist receptors and calcium content in senescent brain and attenuation by nimodipine and nicardipine.
