Bioactivity | Ditekiren (U 71038) is a pseudohexapeptide renin inhibitor. Renin is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in regulating blood pressure and fluid balance. By inhibiting the activity of renin, ditekiren slows down the formation of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor that can raise blood pressure. Ditekiren can be used for research in the field of blood pressure reduction[1]. |
