Disease relevance of SPP100

 

High impact information on SPP100

  • Hormonal and BP effects were compared for 48 h after administration of single oral doses of 300 mg (high dose) of the renin inhibitor aliskiren (A300) and 160 mg (standard antihypertensive dose) of the AT1 receptor antagonist valsartan (V160) and their combination each at half dose (A150+V80) in 12 mildly sodium-depleted normotensive individuals [5].
  • This study compared the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of the orally active direct renin inhibitor, aliskiren, in healthy volunteers and patients with type 2 diabetes [2].
  • RESULTS: Aliskiren exhibited similar pharmacokinetics in patients with type 2 diabetes and healthy volunteers [2].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Aliskiren is an orally effective, long-lasting renin inhibitor that shows antihypertensive efficacy in animals superior to previous renin inhibitors and at least equivalent to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and AT1-receptor blockers [1].
  • OBJECTIVES: Aliskiren is a new renin inhibitor of a novel structural class that has recently been shown to be efficacious in hypertensive patients after once-daily oral dosing [1].

Gene context of SPP100

  • While, to date, aliskiren has only been shown to reduce BP, it appears likely that orally-active renin inhibitors could prove useful in the management of a wide range of cardiovascular pathologies [14].
