| Bioactivity | Epicaptopril (SQ 14534) is the derivative of Captopril (HY-B0368). Epicaptopril is an inhibitor for angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Epicaptopril enhances vasodilation in an endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF)-dependent manner. Epicaptopril is a free radical scavenger, and can be used in research about oxidative stress and free radical damage caused cardiovascular disorders[1][2]. |
