Isosorbide (C0022251)

Definition (CHV) a drug used to prevent or treat chest pain (angina).
Definition (NCI) An organic nitrate with vasodilator activity. Isosorbide relaxes vascular smooth muscle by formation of the free radical nitric oxide (NO), which is identical to the endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). NO activates guanylyl cyclase, thereby increasing the synthesis of cGMP within smooth muscle. Elevated cGMP levels in smooth muscle activate cGMP-dependent kinase activity that leads to release of sequestered Ca2+. In turn, free Ca+ triggers dephosphorylation of light chain myosin and relaxation of peripheral arteries and veins. In addition isosorbide relaxes coronary arteries, thereby increasing the blood circulation through the ischemic area.
Definition (MSH) 1,4:3,6-Dianhydro D-glucitol. Chemically inert osmotic diuretic used mainly to treat hydrocephalus; also used in glaucoma.

Isosorbide Dinitrate (C0022252)

Definition (NCI) The dinitrate salt form of isosorbide, an organic nitrate with vasodilator activity. Isosorbide dinitrate relaxes vascular smooth muscle by formation of the free radical nitric oxide (NO), which is identical to the endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). NO activates guanylyl cyclase, thereby increasing the synthesis of cGMP within smooth muscle, resulting in dephosphorylation of light chain myosin and relaxation of peripheral arteries and veins. In addition, isosorbide dinitrate relaxes coronary arteries, thereby increasing the blood circulation through the ischemic area. (NCI05)
