Description
Curator's Comment: The description was created based on several sources, including https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16620521 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26076923 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9257913 | https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9079232

Moexipril is a non-sulfhydryl containing the precursor of the active angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor moexiprilat. Moexipril hydrochloride is a prodrug for Moexiprilat, which inhibits ACE in humans and animals. The mechanism through which Moexiprilat lowers blood pressure is believed to be primarily inhibition of ACE activity. ACE is a peptidyl dipeptidase that catalyzes the conversion of the inactive decapeptide angiotensin I to the vasoconstrictor substance angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a potent peripheral vasoconstrictor that also stimulates aldosterone secretion by the adrenal cortex and provides negative feedback on renin secretion. ACE is identical to kininase II, an enzyme that degrades bradykinin, an endothelium-dependent vasodilator. Moexiprilat is about 1000 times as potent as Moexipril in inhibiting ACE and kininase II. Inhibition of ACE results in decreased angiotensin II formation, leading to decreased vasoconstriction, increased plasma renin activity and decreased aldosterone secretion. The latter results in diuresis and natriuresis and a small increase in serum potassium concentration.

Approved Use

Moexipril hydrochloride is indicated for treatment of patients with hypertension. It may be used alone or in combination with thiazide diuretics. In using moexipril hydrochloride, consideration should be given to the fact that another ACE inhibitor, captopril, has caused agranulocytosis, particularly in patients with renal impairment or collagen-vascular disease. Available data are insufficient to show that moexipril hydrochloride does not have a similar risk (see WARNINGS). In considering use of moexipril hydrochloride, it should be noted that in controlled trials ACE inhibitors have an effect on blood pressure that is less in black patients than in non-blacks. In addition, ACE inhibitors (for which adequate data are available) cause a higher rate of angioedema in black than in non-black patients (see WARNINGS , Angioedema ).

After 24 h incubation in serum- and phenol red-free medium (DMEM), neonatal rat cardiac fibroblasts were stimulated with 17b-oestradiol (10^-7 ± 10^-9 M), oestrone (10^-7 ± 10^-9M), angiotensin II (10^-7 M) and moexiprilat (10^-7 M). Cells were harvested after 24 h and cellular proliferation was assessed by BrdU incorporation by use of a colorimetric immunoassay. Moexiprilat (10^-7 M) completely inhibited oestrone-induced cardiac fibroblast growth.
