    Product Description

    Azilsartan is an antagonist of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1; IC50 = 0.42 µM) and the active metabolite of azilsartan medoxomil (Item No. 23805).1,2 Azilsartan is formed from azilsartan medoxomil by hydrolysis in the gastrointestinal tract and liver.3 Azilsartan also acts as an inverse agonist, inhibiting angiotensin II-induced accumulation of inositol-1-phosphate in COS-7 cells expressing recombinant human AT1 (IC50 = 2.6 nM).2 It reduces the maximal contractile response induced by angiotensin II in isolated rabbit aortic strips (pD2 = 9.9).2 Azilsartan (100 ng/kg, i.v.) inhibits the angiotensin II-induced pressor response in conscious normotensive rats.1
