Fosinopril is an [[angiotensin converting enzyme]] (ACE) inhibitor used in the treatment of [[hypertension]], [[diabetic nephropathy]], and some types of chronic heart failure. [[ACE]] onverts the peptide hormone [[angiotensin I]] to [[angiotensin II]]. One of the actions of angiotensin II is the [[vasoconstriction]] of blood vessels resulting in an increase in [[blood pressure]]. ACE inhibitors such as Fosinopril prevent this effect. Fosinopril has been shown to lower the death rate in systolic [[heart failure]]. Fosinopril was the first member of the group known as the dicarboxylate-containing ACE inhibitors.

==Development==
The development of fosinopril started from the observation of the hypotensive effects of phosphoramidon, an extract from the bacterium [[''Streptomyces tanashiensis'']]. Phosphoramidon was found to be a potent inhibitor of ACE. It was speculated that the phosphoramide moiety in the molecule was central to its inhibition of ACE. Further studies found that the phosphoramide moiety served the dual-purpose of interacting with the Zn<sup>2+</sup> in ACE, as well as mimicking the transition-state of the natural substrate of ACE.
 
These discoveries led to the attempt to develop a new group of ACE inhibitors which contained the phosphoramide moiety. The initial lead proved to be very potent but unstable at physiological [[pH]]. Later compounds would have a phosphonate moiety (being more stable) in place of the phosphoramide. The lessons learnt in the development of [[enalapril]] and later ACE inhibitors were applied to the design  and eventually '''fosinoprilat''' was developed.
 
==Fosinoprilat and Fosinopril==
Fosinoprilat proved to have the same problem as enalaprilat and the other carboxylate-containing ACE inhibitors (namely poor oral [[bioavailability]]). The solution, fortunately, was very similar - the addition of a hydrophobic side-chain to modulate the ionisation characteristics of the molecule. Thus fosinopril was developed. Fosinopril is administered as a [[prodrug]] and is converted ''in vivo'' to the active form fosinoprilat.

Overview

Fosinopril is an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor used in the treatment of hypertension, diabetic nephropathy, and some types of chronic heart failure. ACE onverts the peptide hormone angiotensin I to angiotensin II. One of the actions of angiotensin II is the vasoconstriction of blood vessels resulting in an increase in blood pressure. ACE inhibitors such as Fosinopril prevent this effect. Fosinopril has been shown to lower the death rate in systolic heart failure. Fosinopril was the first member of the group known as the dicarboxylate-containing ACE inhibitors.
