Product Description
NO-Losartan A (compound 2a) exhibits vasodilatory effects due to the release of NO and antagonizes the vasoconstrictive effects of angiotensin II with potency values similar to those of Losartan.
NO-Losartan A is a nitric oxide (NO)-releasing derivative of losartan, the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) antagonist widely used to treat hypertension. By combining AT1R antagonism with NO donation, this compound is designed to produce enhanced vasodilatory and antihypertensive effects compared to losartan alone. It is intended for research applications in cardiovascular pharmacology and hypertension. For research use only.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
NO-Losartan A targets two mechanisms: (1) the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that mediates the vasoconstrictive, pro-inflammatory, and pro-fibrotic effects of angiotensin II. Inhibition of AT1R lowers blood pressure and provides organ protection. (2) Nitric oxide (NO) is a vasodilatory signaling molecule released from the compound, activating soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) in vascular smooth muscle, leading to cGMP-mediated vasodilation. Dual targeting may produce additive or synergistic vasodilatory effects.
ln Vitro
No specific in vitro activity data for NO-Losartan A is provided. The losartan parent compound is an AT1R antagonist with IC50 in the low nM range (approximately 1-20 nM for binding and functional inhibition). The NO-releasing moiety is expected to generate nitric oxide, which in standard NO donor assays (e.g., Griess reaction for nitrite/nitrate) would show concentration-dependent NO release. However, specific IC50 values or NO release rates for NO-Losartan A are not available in the summarized literature.
ln Vivo
No specific in vivo data is provided. As a dual-acting antihypertensive agent, NO-Losartan A would be expected to lower blood pressure in animal models of hypertension, such as spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) or angiotensin II-infused mice, to a greater extent than losartan alone due to the added vasodilatory effects of NO. The in vivo efficacy would be assessed by radiotelemetry or tail-cuff blood pressure measurement, as well as assessment of end-organ damage (cardiac hypertrophy, renal function). However, specific data for this compound is not reported.
Enzyme Assay
Standard AT1R binding assay: Membrane preparations from cells expressing human AT1R (e.g., CHO-AT1 cells) are incubated with 0.5-2 nM [¹2⁵I]-Sar¹-Ile⁸-angiotensin II ([¹2⁵I]-Ang II) or [3H]-losartan and varying concentrations of NO-Losartan A (0.01-10,000 nM) in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) containing 100 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.1% BSA at 25degC for 90 minutes. Nonspecific binding is determined using 10 uM unlabeled losartan or Ang II. Bound radioactivity is separated by filtration and counted. Ki values are calculated. Standard NO release assay: NO-Losartan A (10-1000 uM) is incubated in PBS (pH 7.4) at 37degC. At various time points (0-60 minutes), samples are mixed with Griess reagent (sulfanilamide, N-1-naphthylethylenediamine dihydrochloride). Absorbance at 540 nm is measured, and nitrite concentration is determined using a sodium nitrite standard curve.
Cell Assay
Standard cellular AT1R antagonism assay: Cells expressing AT1R (e.g., rat vascular smooth muscle cells, HEK293-AT1 cells) are seeded in 96-well plates. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of NO-Losartan A (0.01-10,000 nM) for 30-60 minutes, then stimulated with angiotensin II (100 nM). Functional responses measured include inositol phosphate (IP) accumulation, intracellular calcium mobilization (Fluo-4 AM), or ERK1/2 phosphorylation (Western blot). The IC50 for inhibition of Ang II-induced responses is calculated. For NO activity, cGMP accumulation can be measured in cGMP-responsive cells (e.g., RFL-6 fibroblasts) following exposure to NO-Losartan A. No specific protocols are provided.
Animal Protocol
No specific animal protocol is provided. A typical in vivo protocol for evaluating antihypertensive agents: 8-10 week old spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) are instrumented with telemetry implants or tail-cuff blood pressure monitors. Baseline systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) are measured. NO-Losartan A is administered orally (e.g., 1-30 mg/kg) or intraperitoneally. Blood pressure is measured at various time points (1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24 hours) post-administration. The percent reduction in SBP/DBP is calculated relative to baseline and compared to vehicle controls and losartan as a comparator. Plasma renin activity, Ang II levels, and NO metabolites (nitrite/nitrate) may be measured. No specific data is reported.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
No specific PK data is available. As an NO-releasing derivative of losartan, NO-Losartan A would be expected to have PK properties similar to losartan: losartan has oral bioavailability of approximately 33%, a half-life of about 2 hours, and is metabolized to the active metabolite EXP-3174 (which has a longer half-life of 6-9 hours). The NO-releasing moiety may undergo additional metabolic pathways. The compound would be absorbed, distributed, and the NO portion is released spontaneously or metabolically. No specific parameters are provided.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
No specific toxicity data is available. Losartan is generally well-tolerated with side effects including dizziness, hypotension, hyperkalemia, and renal impairment. The NO-donating moiety may increase the risk of headache, flushing, and hypotension. Excessive NO release can lead to methemoglobinemia and oxidative stress. As a research compound, it should be handled with standard laboratory safety precautions. Not for human consumption.
