Deserpidine is an ester alkaloid derived from Rauwolfia canescens with antihypertensive activity. Deserpidine is a competitive inhibitor of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). By competing with angiotensin I for ACE, deserpidine blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, which is a potent vasoconstrictor. Reduced level of serum angiotensin II causes a decrease in blood pressure. Deserpidine also decreases angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion by the adrenal cortex.
Deserpidine is a Catecholamine-depleting Sympatholytic. The physiologic effect of deserpidine is by means of Decreased Sympathetic Activity.

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Deserpidine, an alkaloid of Rauwolfia canescens, is used as an antihypertensive. Rauwolfia alkaloids work by controlling nerve impulses along certain nerve pathways. As a result, they act on the heart and blood vessels to lower blood pressure.

C - Cardiovascular system

C02 - Antihypertensives

C02A - Antiadrenergic agents, centrally acting

C02AA - Rauwolfia alkaloids

C02AA05 - Deserpidine


5.4 Mechanism of Action

Deserpidine's mechanism of action is through inhibition of the ATP/Mg2+ pump responsible for the sequestering of neurotransmitters into storage vesicles located in the presynaptic neuron. The neurotransmitters that are not sequestered in the storage vesicle are readily metabolized by monoamine oxidase (MAO) causing a reduction in catecholamines.
