| Name | Nilvadipine |
| Description | Nilvadipine (FK235), a calcium channel blocker (CCB), is utilized for treatment of hypertension. |
| In vitro | In RCS rats' retinas, Nilvadipine significantly increased the expression of rhodopsin kinase and αA-crystallin, while it decreased the expression of caspase-1 and caspase-2. It also entirely inhibited arterial vasoactivity induced by Abeta in rat aortas and human brains. Furthermore, Nilvadipine (0.4 mg/kg i.v. and 2 mg/kg p.o.) was able to reduce paw edema induced by localized ischemia in mice. |
| In vivo | In perfused hydronephrotic kidneys, Nilvadipine effectively dilates both afferent and efferent arterioles, enhancing renal blood flow. Moreover, in rat aortic smooth muscle cells (IC50=0.1 nM), Nilvadipine inhibits the chemotactic responses to interleukin-1, leukotriene B4, and platelet-derived growth factor. |
