Abstract
- The article discusses the lack of new molecules for the treatment of hypertension over the past 30 years, with the exception of the combination drug valsartan/sacubitril. However, there are now several new agents that target novel blood pressure regulating mechanisms, including endothelin receptor antagonists, non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists, aldosterone synthase inhibitors, small interfering ribonucleic acid to inhibit the production of angiotensinogen, and M natriuretic peptide. These new agents offer potential advancements in the treatment of hypertension and provide researchers with exciting options for further exploration in the field. [Extracted from the article]
