BACKGROUND The mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist eplerenone improved clinical outcomes among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection faction (HFrEF) in the EMPHASIS-HF (Eplerenone in Mild Patients Hospitalization And SurvIval Study in Heart Failure) study. However, similar efficacy and safety have not been established in Japanese patients. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of e...
The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists PF-03882845 and eplerenone were evaluated for renal protection against aldosterone-mediated renal disease in uninephrectomized Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats maintained on a high salt diet and receiving aldosterone by osmotic mini-pump for 27 days. Serum K(+) and the urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) were assessed following 14 and 27 days of tr...
Eplerenone is a highly selective aldosterone blocker, which is under development for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. To assess its usefulness in older patients with systolic hypertension and widened pulse pressure, we compared the effects of eplerenone with amlodipine, on clinic blood pressure (BP) and pulse pressure and in a subset of the patients, ambulatory BP, vascular comp...
BACKGROUND Eplerenone is a selective mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist, and its potential protective role in cardiovascular injury has been reported by several studies. However, whether and how this drug can ameliorate hepatic injury in rats is unknown. MATERIAL AND METHODS The present study was conducted to investigate effect of eplerenone against liver injury induced by carbon tetr...
Aldosterone may play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of heart failure. To elucidate the beneficial cardioprotective mechanism of eplerenone, a novel selective aldosterone blocker, we hypothesized that eplerenone stimulates endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) through Akt and inhibits inducible NO synthase (iNOS) via nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) after the development of oxidative stress and...
A 47-year-old woman presented with hypokalemia (2.4 mmol/L). She also had hypomagnesemia, hypocalciuria, and hyperreninemic hyperaldosteronism. Sequence analysis revealed a compound heterozygous mutation, R655C and R955Q, in the SLC12A3 gene. These findings were compatible with Gitelman's syndrome (GS). Eplerenone, a selective aldosterone blocker, in combination with oral potassium chloride imp...
The objective of this study was to determine the cost-effectiveness of eplerenone compared with usual care in patients with chronic heart failure and New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II symptoms.A Markov model was constructed with 5 health states to reflect NYHA symptom status (Classes I-IV) and death. All subjects began in the "Class II" health state and then moved to other symptom heal...
The efficacy and tolerability of eplerenone, a selective aldosterone blocker, was assessed when added to existing antihypertensive therapy with an ACE inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). Hypertensive patients (n=341) whose blood pressure (BP) was not controlled despite ACE inhibitor or ARB were randomized (double-blind) to receive 50 mg eplerenone (increasing to 100 mg if req...
Angiotensin II and aldosterone both promote endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. We investigated the effect of a combination of eplerenone, a selective aldosterone antagonist, and enalapril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor, on NO bioavailability and spontaneous atherosclerotic changes. Twenty-four myocardial infarction-prone Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits were trea...
