Product Description

Azilsartan (TAK-536; TAK536; Edarbi; Ipreziv) is a potent and orally bioavailable angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist with antihypertensive effects. It inhibit the RAAS pathway with an IC50 of 2.6 nM and has been approved for use in the treatment of hypertension. Azilsartan was developed by Takeda Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of hypertension. Azilsartan lowers blood pressure by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a vasopressor hormone. Azilsartan inhibits the specific binding of 125I-Sar1-Ile8-AII to human angiotensin type 1 receptors. Azilsartan also inhibits the accumulation of AII-induced inositol 1-phosphate (IP1) in the cell-based assay with an IC50 value of 9.2 nM. Azilsartan medoxomil is a useful and attractive new option for lowering BP in patients with essential hypertension, particularly for those not able to tolerate other antihypertensive drugs.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vitro
Azilsartan (0-200 μM, 0-72 hours) decreases HepG2 cell viability [5]. In HepG2 cells, azilartan (100 μM) causes apoptosis during a 24-hour period [5]. With an IC50 of 2.6 nM, acilestan prevents the particular binding of 125I-Sar1-Ile8-AII to the human angiotensin type 1 receptor[3]. Azilsartan efficiently suppresses aortic endothelial and vascular cell proliferation in the absence of exogenous Ang II supplementation [5]. Compared to valsartan, azilartan has a larger influence on adipogenesis and the expression of genes encoding leptin, adiponectin, PPARδ, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARα). Influence [1].
ln Vivo
In obese Koletsky rats, azilstaran (0–3 mg/kg) administered orally once daily for five days lowers systolic blood pressure (SBP) at a dose of 2 mg/kg[2]. Azilsartan (0–2 mg/kg, orally administered, once daily for 21 days) reduces basal plasma insulin levels and blood pressure[2]. Azilsartan (2 and 4 mg/kg; PO, daily for 9 days) provides defense against secondary brain injury caused by ischemia[4].
Cell Assay
Cell proliferation assay [5]
Cell Types: HepG2 and KDR Cell
Tested Concentrations: 5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 μM
Incubation Duration: 24, 48 and 72 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: The viability of HepG2 cells gradually diminished by increasing the incubation time and duration. At the same dose, the inhibitory concentration (IC 50%) of azilsartan on HepG2 cells at the 24-hour treatment time point was 100 μM, and under similar treatment conditions, no obvious cytotoxic effect was observed in KDR epithelial normal cells.

Apoptosis analysis [5]
Cell Types: HepG2 Cell
Tested Concentrations: 100 μM
Incubation Duration: 24 hrs (hours)
Experimental Results: 57.2% early and 0.52% late apoptosis were induced after 24 hrs (hours).
Animal Protocol
Animal/Disease Models: Male Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, obese Koletsky rats (n=6 per group)[2]
Doses: 0, 1, 2 and 3 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (oral gavage), one time/day (9:00-10:00 hrs (hours)) for 5 days
Experimental Results: diminished SBP (systolic blood pressure) in obese Koletsky rats to that of normal rats at 2 mg/kg, whereas the 3 mg/kg dose elicited hypotension.

Animal/Disease Models: Obese Koletsky rats (16, n = 8 per group)[2]
Doses: 0 and 2 mg/kg
Route of Administration: po (oral gavage), one time/day (9:00-10:00 hrs (hours)) for 21 days
Experimental Results: Lowered blood pressure, basal plasma insulin concentration and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index, and inhibited over-increase of plasma glucose and insulin concentrations during oral glucose tolerance test.

Animal/Disease Models: Male Wistar Rats (240–280 g)[4]
Doses: 0, 2, and 4 mg/kg
Route of Administration: Orally, daily for 9 days, starting 7 days before the day of surgery
Experimental Results: Individual treatments with Azilsartan (2 & 4 mg/kg) and Coenzyme Q10 (20 & 40 mg/kg) Dramatically attenuate

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
