Description
A nonpeptide AT1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 29 nM in rat lung membranes); selective for AT1 over AT2 receptors (Ki = 480 nM in isolated rat adrenal medulla), as well as α1-, α2-, β1-, and β2-adrenergic, adenosine A1 and A2, muscarinic M1, M2, and M3, and atrial natriuretic peptide receptors (Kis = >100 µM for all); decreases diastolic blood pressure in pithed normotensive rats without affecting heart rate at 0.3-10 mg/kg; decreases diastolic blood pressure in renal hypertensive rats with an increase in heart rate at 1-30 mg/kg
