CAS 81872-10-8 Zofenopril-d5 products price,suppliers

Zofenopril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with an IC50 of 81 μM.

Zofenopril is a proline derivative that is 4-(phenylsulfanyl)-L-proline in which the amine proton is replaced by a (2S)-3-(benzoylsulfanyl)-2-methylpropanoyl group. A prodrug for zofenoprilat. It has a role as an EC 3.4.15.1 (peptidyl-dipeptidase A) inhibitor, an apoptosis inhibitor, a cardioprotective agent, an anticonvulsant, a prodrug and a vasodilator agent. It is a thioester, a N-acyl-L-amino acid, an aryl sulfide and a L-proline derivative. It is a conjugate acid of a zofenopril(1-).|Zofenopril is employed as both a cardioprotective and anti-hypertensive agent. It is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.|Zofenopril is a sulfhydryl angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with antihypertensive activity. As a prodrug, zofenopril is hydrolyzed in vivo into its active form zofenoprilat. Zofenoprilat competitively binds to and inhibits ACE, thereby blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II. This prevents the potent vasoconstrictive actions of angiotensin II and results in vasodilation. Zofenoprilat also decreases angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion by the adrenal cortex, which leads to an increase in sodium excretion and subsequently increases water outflow.
