  • Quinapril is a prodrug that belongs to the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor class of medications. It is metabolized to quinaprilat (quinapril diacid) following oral administration. Quinaprilat is a competitive inhibitor of ACE, the enzyme responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I (ATI) to angiotensin II (ATII). ATII regulates blood pressure and is a key component of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Quinapril may be used to treat essential hypertension and congestive heart failure. (en)

adms:identifier
http://linked.open...mechanismOfAction
  • There are two isoforms of ACE: the somatic isoform, which exists as a glycoprotein comprised of a single polypeptide chain of 1277; and the testicular isoform, which has a lower molecular mass and is thought to play a role in sperm maturation and binding of sperm to the oviduct epithelium. Somatic ACE has two functionally active domains, N and C, which arise from tandem gene duplication. Although the two domains have high sequence similarity, they play distinct physiological roles. The C-domain is predominantly involved in blood pressure regulation while the N-domain plays a role in hematopoietic stem cell differentiation and proliferation. ACE inhibitors bind to and inhibit the activity of both domains, but have much greater affinity for and inhibitory activity against the C-domain. Quinaprilat, the principle active metabolite of quinapril, competes with ATI for binding to ACE and inhibits and enzymatic proteolysis of ATI to ATII. Decreasing ATII levels in the body decreases blood pressure by inhibiting the pressor effects of ATII as described in the Pharmacology section above. Quinaprilat also causes an increase in plasma renin activity likely due to a loss of feedback inhibition mediated by ATII on the release of renin and/or stimulation of reflex mechanisms via baroreceptors.

  • Overdose may lead to severe hypotension. LD<sub>50</sub>=1739mg/kg (orally in mice). The most common adverse effects observed in controlled clinical trials were dizziness, cough, chest pain, dyspnea, fatigue, and nausea/vomiting. (en)

  • High salt intake may attenuate the antihypertensive effect of quinapril. (en)
  • Do not take with a high-fat meal. (en)
  • Herbs that may attenuate the antihypertensive effect of quinapril include: bayberry, blue cohash, cayenne, ephedra, ginger, ginseng (American), kola and licorice. (en)
  • Quinapril may decrease the excretion of potassium. Salt substitutes containing potassium may increase the risk of hyperkalemia. (en)
