CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Quinapril is deesterified to the principal metabolite, quinaprilat,
which is an inhibitor of ACE activity in
human subjects and animals. ACE is a peptidyl dipeptidase that
catalyzes the conversion of angiotensin I
to the vasoconstrictor, angiotensin II. The effect of quinapril in
hypertension appears to result primarily
from the inhibition of circulating and tissue ACE activity, thereby
reducing angiotensin II formation.

Quinapril inhibits the elevation in blood pressure caused by
intravenously administered angiotensin I,
but has no effect on the pressor response to angioten
