1 Effect of enalapril and quinapril on forearm vascular ACE in man. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
2 Quinapril appears to be amongst the more effective inhibitors of vascular tissue ACE in vitro. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
3 This study assesses the in vivo effect of single oral doses of quinapril and enalapril, in attenuating the vasoconstrictive action of angiotensin I (AI) (which we have previously shown depends on its conversion to angiotensin II (AII) by vascular ACE) in the forearm resistance vessels of man. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
4 Both quinapril and enalapril produced a similar degree of plasma ACE inhibition reducing concentrations to 2.8 U.l-1 and 2.6 U.l-1 respectively. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
5 CONCLUSION: These results indicate that when quinapril and enalapril are administered as single 20 mg doses, each of which produces the same degree of plasma ACE inhibition and blood pressure reduction- quinapril inhibits vascular ACE to a greater degree than both enalapril and placebo. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
6 CONCLUSION: These results indicate that when quinapril and enalapril are administered as single 20 mg doses, each of which produces the same degree of plasma ACE inhibition and blood pressure reduction- quinapril inhibits vascular ACE to a greater degree than both enalapril and placebo. Quinapril angiotensin I converting enzyme Homo sapiens
7 CONCLUSION: These results indicate that when quinapril and enalapril are administered as single 20 mg doses, each of which produces the same degree of plasma ACE inhibition and blood pressure reduction- quinapril inhibits vascular ACE to a greater degree than both enalapril and placebo.
