Aliskiren is a nonpeptide renin inhibitor (IC50 = 0.6 nM) that selectively binds to the S3 sub-pocket of renin, preventing the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I, thereby blocking eventual conversion to angiotensin II.{31535,12909} Thus, by blocking renin, aliskiren was designed to prevent angiotensin II-mediated arterial vasoconstriction and aldosterone production.{31535,10615} Aliskiren is orally bioavailable and, in combination with valsartan (Item No. 14178), was shown to reduce blood pressure in db/db mice.{21725}
