Neprilysin (MME) is responsible for the degradation of atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (NPPA and NPPB respectively), two blood pressure–lowering peptides that work by reducing blood volume (Richards et al. 1990). Sacubitril is an antihypertensive drug used in combination with valsartan for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure (Gu et al. 2010, Kobalava et al. 2016, Kanodia et al. 2020). Sacubitril is a prodrug that is activated to sacubitrilat (LBQ657) by de-ethylation via esterases (Shi et al. 2016). Sacubitrilat inhibits MME, leading to a lowering of hypertension (Zheng et al. 2021). Angiotensin receptor blockade (via valsartan) and neprilysin inhibition (via sacubitril) together may offer superior benefits for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure than ACE inhibitor monotherapy (McMurray et al. 2014).
