Enalapril  (Synonyms: MK-421)

Enalapril (MK-421) is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, can be used for hypertensive diseases research^[1][2].

Enalapril (10-20 μM) has an antiarrhythmic effect in ultrafiltered PV sleeve preparation isolated from canine hearts which can inhibit EAD and DAD-induced activity^[1].
Enalapril (50 μM, 24 hours) inhibits the induction of apoptosis by patient serum only when used prior to treatment of HUVEC with Alzheimer's disease (AD) serum^[2].
Pure Enalapril has better thermal stability than pure Enalapril^[3].

Enalapril (intraperitoneal injection, 0.03 mg/kg, once, 1 hour) reduces infarct volume due to middle cerebral artery occlusion and lower or higher doses are ineffective in Male NMRI mice^[4].
