Biological Activity
| Description | Amlodipine (UK-48340) is a long-acting calcium channel blocker, used to lower blood pressure and prevent chest pain. | |

|
| In vitro | Amlodipine causes a dose-dependent increase in nitrite production. Amlodipine also increases nitrite production in large coronary arteries and in aorta. [1] Amlodipine is attributed to distinct membrane physico-chemical interactions. Amlodipine contributes to distinct membrane biophysical interactions that lead to potent lipid antioxidant effects, independent of calcium channel modulation. [2] Amlodipine increases plaque smooth muscle cell content (P<0.05), whereas atenolol decreases plaque inflammation. [3] Amlodipine attenuates intracellular neuronal Ca2+ increases elicited by KCl depolarization but does not affect Ca2+ changes triggered by N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor activation. Amlodipine also inhibits free radical-induced damage to lipid constituents of the membrane in a dose-dependent manner, independent of Ca2+ channel modulation. [4] | |
| In vivo | Amlodipine results in regression of cardiovascular hypertrophy and amelioration of endothelial dysfunction in spontaneously hypertensive rats. [5] Amlodipine significantly reduces aortic hypertrophy, endothelial dysfunction, LOX-1 expression, aortic O(2)(-) and ONOO(-) production, and plasma free 8-F(2)alpha-isoprostane levels in Ang II-infused rats. Amlodipine has antihypertensive and antioxidant activity in vivo, which effectively inhibits many of the oxidative stress-dependent mechanisms involved in Ang II-mediated cardiovascular injury. [6] |
