Nicardipine(YC-93) is a calcium channel blocker that has been widely used to control blood pressure in severe hypertension.

Nicardipine(YC-93) is a calcium channel blocker that has been widely used to control blood pressure in severe hypertension following events such as ischemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and intracerebral hemorrhage.Hypertension Phase 3 Clinical(In Vitro):Nicardipine (0.1-10 μM; 24-48 h) reduces viability and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and inhibits their ability to migrate.(In Vivo):Nicardipine (0.3-10 mg/kg; p.o.) shows antihypertensive properties.LD50s of Nicardipine are 643 mg/kg (oral) and 557 mg/kg (oral); 18.1 mg/kg (intravenous) 25.0 mg/kg (intravenous); 735 mg/kg (subcutaneous) and 683 mg/kg (subcutaneous); 171 mg/kg (intraperitoneally) and 155 mg/kg (intraperitoneally) for male and female Sprague-Dawley rats, respectively.LD50s of Nicardipine are 187 mg/kg (oral) and 15.5 mg/kg (intravenous) for male Wistar rats, respectively.LD50s of Nicardipine are 634 mg/kg (oral) and 650 mg/kg (oral); 20.7 mg/kg (intravenous) 19.9 mg/kg (intravenous); 540 mg/kg (subcutaneous) and 710 mg/kg (subcutaneous); 144 mg/kg (intraperitoneally) and 161 mg/kg (intraperitoneally) for male and female mice, respectively.

Cell Viability Assay Cell Line:VSMCs were isolated from New Zealand rabbit aortic preparations Concentration:0.1 μM, 1 μM, 3 μM, 10 μM Incubation Time:24-48 hours Result:Treatment reduced significantly cell viability and inhibited VSMCs proliferation in the presence of 10% FBS in a dose-dependent way, from 205.4±17.5% to 176.6±17%, 160.6±5.7%, 150.4±11.2%, 61.22±7.83% after 0.1 μM, 1 μM, 3 μM, 10 μM treatment, respectively. Western Blot Analysis Cell Line:BV-2 microglial cells Concentration:1, 3, 5, 10 μM Incubation Time:1 hours Result:Reduced LPS/IFN-γ- and peptidoglycan-induced iNOS expression and COX-2 expression in a concentration-dependent manners.

Animal Model:In conscious normotensive rats (NR)Dosage:0.3-10 mg/kg Administration:P.o.Result:Induced a dose-dependent hypotensive response (maximal decrease in mean blood pressure, supine position) without any postural hypotensive response.
