    Background
    
    LHW090-A7 is a potential inhibitor of neutral endopeptidase (NEP). It has been shown that the NEP inhibitors induced the increase of plasma levels of endogenous atrial natriuretic peptides (NPs), which makes the inhibition of NEP to be a potential novel therapeutic approach. NPs block the activity of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, have antihypertrophic and antiproliferative effects, and reduce sympathetic drive. Additionally, NEP inhibitors are expected to trigger natriuretic and diuretic effects. NEP, a zinc-dependent, membrane-bound endopeptidase, hydrolyses peptides on the amino side of hydrophobic residues. It is essential for the processing and catabolism of vasoactive peptides as well as peptides involved in natriuresis and diuresis. NEP is indirectly and directly involved in the regulation of signaling pathways. NEP is implicated in proteolytic degradation or activation of bioactive peptides, growth factors, and cytokines in an indirect fashion. In addition to this, NEP is involved in regulating signaling pathways in a direct manner [1].In vitro: Up to now, in vitro study of LHW090-A7 is still in the development stage.In vivo: Up to now, in vivo study of LHW090-A7 is still in the development stage.
