Lisinopril high blood pressure drug
Lisinopril high blood pressure drug, molecular model. This drug, marketed as Prinivil, Zestril and Lisodur, is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and heart disease. It is an ACE inhibitor, a drug that works by blocking the action of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). This enzyme, as its name implies, converts the peptide angiotensin from its inactive to active form. The active form is a powerful vasoconstrictor (narrowing blood vessels), and vasoconstriction raises the blood pressure, so blocking ACE is a good way to reduce blood pressure. Atoms are shown as rods and are colour coded: carbon is yellow, oxygen is blue, nitrogen is green and hydrogen is white

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the molecular model of Lisinopril, a high blood pressure drug known for its effectiveness in treating hypertension and heart disease. Marketed under various names such as Prinivil, Zestril, and Lisodur, this pharmaceutical compound belongs to the class of ACE inhibitors. The intricate structure depicted here reveals how Lisinopril works by blocking the action of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin converting enzyme plays a crucial role in converting inactive angiotensin into its active form. This activated peptide acts as a potent vasoconstrictor, causing blood vessels to narrow and subsequently raising blood pressure levels. By inhibiting ACE's function, Lisinopril effectively reduces blood pressure. The visual representation employs color-coded rods to represent different atoms: yellow for carbon, blue for oxygen, green for nitrogen, and white for hydrogen. This artistic rendering not only highlights the complexity of this biochemical compound but also serves as a reminder of the significant impact it has on human health. With its scientific precision and aesthetic appeal, this computer artwork provides an insightful glimpse into the world of pharmacology and biochemistry. It symbolizes medical advancements aimed at combating hypertension while emphasizing the importance of understanding molecular structures in developing effective treatments.
