Additional Information:

Losartan is non-peptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist (1,2) which is a clinically relevant antihypertensive agent (3). This compound inhibits collagen I synthesis (4) and induces SIRT1 expression and activity and reduces hepatic injury in a rat reduced-size orthotopic liver transplantation model (5). It displays neuroprotective effects along with nimesulide against chronic fatigue stress (6) as well as myocardial antifibrotic activity (7).
