Blood pressure reduction in hypertensive-diabetic rats by the somatostatin analog MK-678.

A hypotensive effect of an orally-administered cyclopeptide somatostatin analog, MK-678, has been demonstrated in a hypertensive diabetic rat model. Sustained blood pressure reduction failed to occur when the drug was administered to the spontaneously hypertensive rat. The mechanism of hypotension appears independent of effects on a variety of hormones including insulin, glucagon, growth hormone, and components of the renin-angiotensin system including renin activity, plasma angiotensin converting enzyme, and aldosterone.[1]
