Does oral SCH 42495 inhibit renal neutral endopeptidase in adult normotensive Sprague-Dawley rats?
Short-term administration of the NEP inhibitor SCH 42495 significantly inhibits renal NEP without affecting the circulating or tissue renin-angiotensin system in rats.
Burrell et al. (1997) studied this question.
