Perindopril 73-84 angiotensin-converting enzyme Oryctolagus cuniculus 40-69 9125666-2 1997 In this study, we evaluated the acute and chronic in vivo inhibition of ACE by perindopril in both the endothelium and adventitia of large blood vessels including the aorta, carotid, and femoral arteries, heart, lung, and kidney by using in vitro autoradiography with [(125)I]351A as a ligand. Perindopril 79-90 angiotensin-converting enzyme Oryctolagus cuniculus 72-75 9125666-3 1997 After short-term (0.1, 0.3, and 1 mg/kg) or long-term oral administration (0.3 mg/kg), perindopril significantly inhibited plasma ACE (p < 0.001), the plasma angiotensin II (Ang II)/Ang I ratio (p < 0.01), and decreased mean arterial pressure (p < 0.001) in a dose-related manner. Perindopril 87-98 angiotensin-converting enzyme Oryctolagus cuniculus 130-133 9125666-4 1997 In the aorta, carotid, and femoral arteries, free ACE was inhibited to a similar extent in both the endothelium and adventitia by perindopril, in a dose-dependent manner, whereas total ACE in both layers of these vessels was unaltered. Perindopril 130-141 angiotensin-converting enzyme Oryctolagus cuniculus 50-53 9125666-5 1997 Similar short- and long-term ACE inhibition by perindopril was observed in the lung and heart, with somewhat greater inhibition of kidney and plasma ACE. Perindopril 47-58 angiotensin-converting enzyme Oryctolagus cuniculus 29-32 9125666-8 1997 These results demonstrate that perindopril readily penetrates the vascular wall after short- or long-term oral administration, and in a dose-dependent manner, potently inhibits both endothelial and advential vascular ACE to a comparable degree.
