The present study investigated the effect of the vasopeptidase inhibitor AVE7688 in comparison to the ACE inhibitor ramipril on systolic blood pressure (SBP) and endothelial function in renovascular hypertension. &lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt; Wistar-Kyoto rats with renovascular hypertension (two-kidney one-clamp-model) were randomized 2 weeks after unilateral clamping of the right renal artery for 3 weeks\u2019 oral treatment with either AVE7688 (30 mg\/kg\/day), ramipril (1 mg\/kg\/day) or placebo. SBP was measured by the tail-cuff method and endothelium-dependent and -independent vascular function was assessed in isolated preconstricted (norepinephrine 10&lt;sup&gt;\u20137&lt;\/sup&gt; mol\/l) aortic rings as relaxation to acetylcholine (10&lt;sup&gt;\u201310&lt;\/sup&gt;\u201310&lt;sup&gt;\u20134&lt;\/sup&gt; mol\/l) and sodium nitroprusside (10&lt;sup&gt;\u201310&lt;\/sup&gt;\u201310&lt;sup&gt;\u20134&lt;\/sup&gt; mol\/l), respectively. &lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt; Two weeks after clamping, SBP was significantly elevated (196 \u00b1 16 vs. 145 \u00b1 8 mm Hg for sham-operated rats; p &lt; 0.01) and further increased in placebo-treated animals to 208 \u00b1 19 mm Hg. Treatment with AVE7688 and ramipril had a similar blood pressure-lowering effect (119 \u00b1 8 and 124 \u00b1 10 mm Hg, respectively; p &lt; 0.01 vs. placebo). Maximum endothelium-dependent relaxation was reduced in hypertensive rats (72 \u00b1 6 vs. 99 \u00b1 7% in control rats; p &lt; 0.05). Endothelium-dependent relaxation was restored by AVE7688 (101 \u00b1 6%) and ramipril (94 \u00b1 8%), respectively, whereas endothelium-independent relaxation was comparable in all groups. &lt;i&gt;Conclusion:&lt;\/i&gt; In renovascular hypertension the vasopeptidase inhibitor AVE7688 exhibited similar blood pressure-lowering and endothelial protective properties as compared to the ACE inhibitor ramipril. Therefore, in high renin models of hypertension, vasopeptidase inhibition may be considered an alternative treatment option to ACE inhibition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000097625","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,12,1]],"date-time":"2006-12-01T12:39:49Z","timestamp":1164976789000},"page":"351-359","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Vasopeptidase
