Description of Valsartan

Valsartan is a nonpeptide angiotensin receptor antagonist that selectively blocks the binding of angiotensin II to the angiotensin II type 1 receptor[1]. Valsartan improves cardiac remodeling by inhibiting guanine nucleotide-binding proteins and blocking EGFR activation, and contributes to the synergistic effects mediated downstream of Sacubitril via its regulation of glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK3B) and the activities of the segment polarity protein disheveled homologs DVL-1, 2, and 3[2]. Valsartan has been widely used in immune response studies to inhibit the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as the binding activity of NF-κB, and to regulate inflammation[3].

In vitro, Valsartan treatment (1μM) for 48 hours inhibited the expression of MCP-1 and TGF-β1 in rat glomerular mesangial cells (GMCs) and glomerular epithelial cells (GECs) induced by high glucose, and alleviated oxidative stress[4]. Incubation of BEAS-2B cells with 80μM Valsartan for 24 hours alleviated the decrease in cell viability triggered by 50μg/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS), suppressed the expression of MUC5AC at both transcriptional and translational levels, and blocked the phosphorylation of p65, p38, ERK and JNK[5].

In vivo, Valsartan treatment via oral administration at a dose of 40mg/kg/day for 18 days reduced tumor volume and weight, and restrained angiogenesis in a mouse model of colorectal cancer[6]. Oral administration of Valsartan at a dose of 10mg/kg/day for 2 weeks reduced infarct size and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and decreased plasma TNF-α levels in a rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury[7]. Oral administration of Valsartan at a dose of 10mg/kg/day for 5 months lowered brain β-amyloid levels and improved spatial learning ability in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease[8].

Protocol of Valsartan

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

BEAS-2B cells

Preparation Method

BEAS-2B cells were RPMI-1640 medium supplemented with 100μg/ml streptomycin, 100μg/ml penicillin and 10% fetal bovine serum at 37°C in an incubator with 5% CO2. BEAS-2B cells (5×103/well) were seeded in the 96-well plates and cultured for 12h before 24h-starvation followed by treatment with different concentrations of Valsartan (0, 20, 40, and 80µM) in the presence of LPS (50μg/ml) for 24h. Cells were then washed twice with sterile PBS and the viability was measured.

Reaction Conditions

0, 20, 40, and 80µM; 24h

Applications

Valsartan restored the LPS-treated cell viability in BEAS-2B cells in a dose-dependent manner.
Animal experiment [2]:

Animal models

BALB/c mice

Preparation Method

BALB/c mice, aged 7 weeks with weights of 22-25g, were housed in cages and maintained in air-conditioned animal quarters with a 12h light-dark cycle and free access to autoclaved tap water and a standard chow diet. 2×106 CT-26 cells were injected in the right flank region of mouse and approximately two weeks, when tumors reached a volume of 80-100mm3, mice were separated into four groups randomly as below: (1) Control (Untreated mice), (2) Valsartan (treated with 40mg/kg/day; orally; 18 days). The size of tumor was assessed every other day with the digital caliper.

Dosage form

40mg/kg/day; 18 days; p.o.

Applications

Valsartan treatment reduced tumor growth in mice with CT-26 xenografts.
