Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a peptide hormone that impacts vascular smooth muscle tone and renal salt exchange, driving hypertension.

Background:

Enalaprilat (dihydrate) (MK-422) is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with IC50 of 1.94 nM.

Enalaprilat has high affinity for human endothelial ACE with IC50 of 1.94 nM in vitro binding assay by displacing a saturating concentration of [125I]351A, a radiolabeled lisinopril analogue from ACE binding sites, and shows bradykinin/angiotensin I selectivity ratio of 1.00 calculated from double displacement experiments[1]. Enalaprilat attenuates the IGF-I induced neonatal rat cardiac fibroblast growth (30% reduction) in a concentration-dependent fashion, with IC50 of 90 mM[2].

Administration of Enalaprilat induces a significant reduction of MAP at 70 minutes compared with the placebo group during haemorrhagic shock in rats, and results in a 50% reduction of CO, a general tendency of EB extravasation which is significant in the kidney and lungs, and a significant increase in ileal EB extravasation (53%)[3].
