Product Overview

Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), is well-known for its effectiveness in managing hypertension and cardiovascular health. Recently, its role has expanded into oncology, with studies indicating it may have antitumor effects, particularly against esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In both in vitro and in vivo models, telmisartan was shown to inhibit ESCC cell proliferation, largely by inducing S-phase cell-cycle arrest. This mechanism, marked by decreased expression of cyclin A2 and CDK2, highlights telmisartan's potential to halt cancer cell growth without promoting apoptosis. This finding, coupled with its ability to downregulate cell proliferation signals like ErbB3, underscores telmisartan's emerging value in cancer therapy.

How does telmisartan help manage hypertension?
Telmisartan works by blocking the angiotensin II receptor, which helps relax blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart.

Does telmisartan have any potential benefits beyond hypertension?
Recent studies suggest telmisartan may have antitumor properties, specifically against esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), by inhibiting cancer cell growth and proliferation.
