Molecular docking analysis of AGTR1 antagonists.

ABSTRACT: Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death and morbidity globally. The renin-angiotensin system is an important regulatory system for maintaining cardiovascular and renal function. Therefore, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers have emerged as first-line treatments for conditions such as hypertension and heart failure. Currently available synthetic medications used to treat various CVDs have been linked with various adverse effects. Therefore, this study focuses on targeting type-1 angiotensin II receptor (AGTR1) by natural compounds. The ZINC database natural compounds and standard AGTR1 inhibitors have been screened against the AGTR1 active site. The results showed that five compounds, namely ZINC85625504, ZINC62001623, ZINC706665
