Additional Information:

Valsartan is a high affinity angiotensin AT1 receptor antagonist (Ki = 2.38 nM) and is highly selective (30,000-fold) over AT2 receptors (1,2). This compound normalizes the increased production of inflammatory cytokines in adipose and liver tissue in LPS-infused mice (3) and is also a clinically relevant antihypertensive agent being orally active.
