Biological Activity

Description Lacidipine (GX-1048, GR-43659X, SN-305) is a L-type calcium channel blocker, used for treating high blood pressure.
Targets
L-type calcium channel [1]
In vitro Lacidipine, an L-type Ca(2+) channel blocker that also inhibits [Ca(2+)](ER) efflux, enhances folding, trafficking, and activity of degradation-prone glucocerebrosidase (GC) variants. Lacidipine remodels mutated GC proteostasis by simultaneously activating a series of distinct molecular mechanisms, namely modulation of Ca(2+) homeostasis, upregulation of the ER chaperone BiP, and moderate induction of the unfolded protein response. [1] Lacidipine almost completely inhibits cholesterol esterification in cholesterol loaded mouse cultured peritoneal macrophages. [2]
In vivo Lacidipine has non-significant effects on blood pressure but inhibits the paradoxical increases in plasma renin activity (PRA) and in renin mRNA in kidney that are found in salt-loaded stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP). Lacidipine restores the physiological downregulation of renin production by high salt and reduces left ventricular hypertrophy and mRNA levels of atrial natriuretic factor and transforming growth factor-beta1. [3] Lacidipine (1 and 3 mg/kg) also effectively increases calcium concentrations significantly in ovariectomized rats. [4] Lacidipine, a dihydropyridine-type calcium antagonist, reduces the cardiac hypertrophy and the cardiacendothelin-1 (ET-1) gene overexpression occurring in salt-loaded stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SL-SHRSP), an effect occurring without systolic blood pressure (SBP) change. Lacidipine exerts a dose-related inhibition of ventricle hypertrophy and preproET-1-mRNA expression in SHRSP and indicate that this effect is unrelated to SBP changes. [5]
