Dipeptide 2  (Synonyms: N-Valyltryptophan; Val-Trp)

Cat. No.: HY-118060 Purity: 98.12%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

Dipeptide 2 (N-Valyltryptophan) is an orally active, competitive angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide with an IC50 of 10.50 μM. Dipeptide 2 reduces intracellular Calcium ions. Dipeptide 2 significantly increases the content of NO, inhibits the production of ET-1, and induces the phosphorylation of eNOS. Dipeptide 2 decreases the systolic and diastolic blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats.

Description

Dipeptide 2 (N-Valyltryptophan) is an orally active, competitive angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide with an IC50 of 10.50 μM. Dipeptide 2 reduces intracellular Calcium ions. Dipeptide 2 significantly increases the content of NO, inhibits the production of ET-1, and induces the phosphorylation of eNOS. Dipeptide 2 decreases the systolic and diastolic blood pressure of spontaneously hypertensive rats[1].

In Vitro

Dipeptide 2 potently inhibits purified ACE with an IC50 of 10.50 ± 0.97 μM[2].
Dipeptide 2 (12.5-50 μM; 24 h) is non-toxic to HUVECs[2].
Dipeptide 2 (12.5-50 μM; 4 h) reduces intracellular calcium concentration in Ang I-induced HUVECs, promoting vascular smooth muscle relaxation[2].
Dipeptide 2 (12.5-50 μM; 4 h) promotes NO production in Ang I-induced HUVECs, with a 12.9% increase at 50 μM[2].

Western Blot Analysis[2]

Cell Line: Ang I-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)
Concentration: 12.5-50 μM
Incubation Time: 4 h
Result: Significantly inhibited ET-1 protein expression and stimulated eNOS phosphorylation compared to the Ang I-only group.
Caused a 60.4% reduction in ET-1 and a 92.9% increase in p-eNOS protein expression in the 50 μM group.
In Vivo

Dipeptide 2 (10-40 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; for 12 consecutive days) exerts significant in vivo hypotensive activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats[2].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Animal Model: SHRs (male, 8 weeks old, 220 ± 20 g, spontaneously hypertensive model)[2]
Dosage: 10 mg/kg; 40 mg/kg
Administration: p.o.; once daily; 12 days
Result: Significantly suppressed diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in SHRs between days 8 and 12, with DBP reductions ranging from 3 to 27 mmHg.
Produced a maximum DBP reduction of 27 mmHg on day 12 at 40 mg/kg.
Reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP) by 32 mmHg on day 12.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
