Azilsartan
Based on 6 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Azilsartan (TAK-536) is an orally active, potent, selective and specific angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) antagonist. Azilsartan induces ROS formation and apoptosis in HepG2 cells. Azilsartan shows neuroprotective and anticancer activity. Azilsartan can be used for hypertension and stroke research.

Azilsartan (0-200 μM, 0-72 h) decreases the viability of HepG2 cells[5].
Azilsartan (100 μM, 24 h) induces apoptosis in HepG2 cells[5].
Azilsartan inhibits the specific binding of 125I-Sar1-Ile8-AII to human angiotensin type 1 receptors with an IC50 of 2.6 nM[3].
Azilsartan potently inhibits aortic endothelial and vascular cell proliferation in the absence of exogenous Ang II supplementation[5].
Azilsartan enhances adipogenesis and exerted greater effects than Valsartan (HY-18204) on expression of genes encoding peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPARα), PPARδ, leptin, adipsin, and adiponectin[1].

-
Result:Gradually decreased the viability of HepG2 cells by increasing the incubation time and dose, the inhibitory concentration of Azilsartan (IC 50%) against HepG2 cells was 100 μM for 24 h treatment time point while in KDR epithelial normal cells no significant cytotoxic effect was observed during the similar treatment conditions.

Cell Line:HepG2 cells
-
Concentration:100 μM
-
Incubation Time:24 h
-
Result:Induced 57.2% early and 0.52% late apoptosis respectively after 24 h.
Azilsartan (0-2 mg/kg, Oral gavage, once daily for 21 days) lowers blood pressure and basal plasma insulin concentration[2].
Azilsartan (2 and 4 mg/kg; PO, daily for 9 days) offers protection against ischemia induced secondary brain injury[4].

-
Animal Model:Male Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, obese Koletsky rats (n=6 per group)[2]
-
Dosage:0, 1, 2 and 3 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage, once daily (9:00-10:00 hours) for 5 days
-
Result:Decreased SBP (systolic blood pressure) in obese Koletsky rats to that of normal rats at 2 mg/kg, whereas the 3 mg/kg dose elicited hypotension.
-
Animal Model:Obese Koletsky rats (16, n = 8 per group)[2]
-
Dosage:0 and 2 mg/kg
-
Administration:Oral gavage, once daily (9:00-10:00 hours) for 21 days
-
Result:Lowered blood pressure, basal plasma insulin concentration and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index, and inhibited over-increase of plasma glucose and insulin concentrations during oral glucose tolerance test.
-
Animal Model:Male Wistar Rats (240–280 g)[4]
-
Dosage:0, 2, and 4 mg/kg
-
Administration:Orally, daily for 9 days, starting 7 days before the day of surgery
-
Result:Individual treatments with Azilsartan (2 & 4 mg/kg) and Coenzyme Q10 (HY-N0111) (20 & 40 mg/kg) significantly attenuated the reduction in locomotor activity. Further, combination treatment with azilsartan (2 mg/kg) and Coenzyme Q10 (20 mg/kg) significantly improved the locomotor activity of animals as compared to their effects per se in BCCAO treated animals.
