Epicaptopril is an impurity of Captopril, which is an orally active angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure. Epicaptopril does not show any inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and can be used as negative control in ACE inhibition experiments

In Vitro Use Guide

The protective effects of SH-ACEIs from free radical-induced cell damage have been also assessed in cultured endothelial cells exposed to a superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals generating system. Preincubation of the cells with captopril, epicaptopril, or zofenopril produced a concentration-dependent (10–200 mkM) inhibition of malonyldialdehyde formation. Both loss of cell viability and membrane blebbing were reduced by SH-ACEIs at concentrations as low as 10 mkM. In contrast, lisinopril and enalaprilat at concentrations up to 200 mkM were ineffective
