The separation was performed on a Thermo BDS Hypersil C18 column （4.6 mm × 100 mm, 2.4 μm） for indapamide and perindopril simultaneously following a protein precipitation pretreatment of the biosamples. The separation of perindoprilat was achieved independently on a phenomenex PFP column （4.6 mm × 150 mm, 5 μm）. All the analytes were quantitated with positive electrospray ionization and multiple reactions monitoring mode. The assay exhibited a linear range of 1-250 ng/mL for indapamide, 0.4-100 ng/mL for perindopril and 0.2-20 ng/mL for perindoprilat. The methods were fully validated to meet the requirements for bioassay in accuracy, precision, recovery, reproducibility, stabilities and matrix effects, and successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of perindopril tert-butylamine/indapamide compound tablets in Chinese healthy volunteers and the comparative pharmacokinetic study between plasma and whole blood.展开更多

Methods: Forty rats were divided into four groups: control, MSC, ACEI, MSC+ACEI groups. Bone marrow stem cell derived rat was injected immediately into a zone made ischemic by coronary artery ligation in MSC group and MSC+ACEI group. Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was injected into control group. Perindopril was administered p.o. to ACEI group and MSC+ACEI group. Six weeks after implantation, the rats were killed and heart sample was collected. Fibrillar collagen was observed by meliorative Masson’s trichome stain. Western Blotting was employed to evaluate the protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in infarction zone. The transcriptional level of MMP2, MMP9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 in infarction area was detected by reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) analysis. Results: The fibrillar collagen area, the protein expression of MMP2, MMP9 and the transcriptional level of MMP2, MMP9 mRNA in infarction zone reduced in MSC group, ACEI group, and MSC+ACEI group. No significant difference was detected in the expression of TIMP1 mRNA among the 4 groups. Conclusion: Both MSC and ACEI could reduce infarction remodelling by altering collagen metabolism.展开更多

Methods: Cultured cardiomyocytes of rats were divided into normal, model, Astragaloside and Perindopril groups. The model, Astragaloside and Perindopril groups were infected with CVB 3. Meanwhile, the Astragaloside and the Perindopril groups were treated with Astragaloside (10 μg/ml) and Perindopril (1.3 μg/ml) respectively. Cytopathic effect (CPE), cardiac troponin I ( cTnI) , the SERCA activity and mRNA level of the SERCA type 2 were observed after 96 hours. Results: The CPE and cTnI of model group were significantly higher than those of normal, Astragaloside and Perindopril groups ( P <0.01). The activity and the mRNA expression of myocardial SERCA of model group were significantly lower than those of normal, Astragaloside and Perindopril groups ( P <0.01-0.05). Compared with Astragaloside group, the CPE, cTnI of Perindopril group were higher and the activity and mRNA level of Perindopril group were lower. But there were no significant difference between the two groups ( P >0.05). Conclusion: Astragaloside and Perindopril were able to reverse the down regulations of cardiac SERCA activity and mRNA expression caused by virus infection to alleviate the cardiomyocyte injury.展开更多

Previous antihypertensive drugs were discontinued for at least 2 weeks, after which patients were randomly divided into 2 groups. 25 subjects were treated with perindopril 4 to 8 mg once daily in the morning (Group A) and 22 subjects with metoprolol 25 to 62.5 mg twice daily (Group B). The subjects were evaluated before and after 4 and 8 weeks of treatment by use of echocardiography. Before treatment LV mass indexes (LVMI) of two groups were respectively 143.2 ± 21.3 g / m2 and 140.6 ± 23.7 g / m2 (P>0.05). In Group A, reduction of LVMI occurred after 4 weeks of treatment, and more pronounced after 8 weeks (from 143.2 ± 21.3 g / m2 to 126.6 ± 15.3 g / m2, P< 0.001), whereas reduction of LVMI occurred only after 8 weeks in Group B (from 140.6 ± 23.7 g / m2 to 133.4 ± 13.2 g / m2, P< 0.001). In addition, there was a significant (P<0.05) difference in LVMI between the two groups after 8 weeks. LV systolic function remained unchanged, whereas E / A increased significantly (P< 0.001) in two groups after 8 weeks. In conclusion, antihypertensive treatment with perindopril and metoprolol induced a significant regression of LVH associated with improvement in LV diastolic performance. Perindopril, compared with metoprolol, was more effective in reversing LVH.展开更多
