Application

Mice were treated with valsartan to study the role of Ang II-dependent pathway in aldosterone-related effects.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Valsartan is an Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist and anti-hypertensive. Valsartan renders protection against heart attack and stroke resulting from abrupt increase in blood pressure. Valsartan reduces myocardial-infarction-related complications in heart attack survivors.

LDL-receptor deficiency may provide a mechanism which contributes to atherogenic lipoprotein abnormalities in experimental nephrosis and in humans with glomerular proteinuria. The proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) pathway plays a key role in lipoprotein metabolism by promoting LDL-receptor degradation.
