Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
apocynin aortic rings from mice deificient in subunit p47phox are more sensitive to apocynin-induced dilation than wild-type aortic rings. Rho kinase inhibition reduces or prevents the inhibitory effect of apocynin on agonist-induced vasoconstriction and apocynin inhibits the phosphorylation of Rho kinase substrates Mus musculus
apocynin apocynin does not reduce arterial pressure acutely in spontaneously hpertensive rats when given orally over 1-week intervals or when given i.v. Apocynin potently inhibits granulocyte NADPH oxidase but not vascular NADPH-oxidase dependent oxygen radical formation unless exogenous peroxidase is added to vascular preparations. Apocynin dilates rat intrarenal and coronary arteries independently of pharmacological interventions that reduce vascular superoxide radical abundance and actions Rattus norvegicus
