(R)-Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that binds to the L-type calcium channels and inhibits the influx of cytosolic calcium, thereby reducing the excitation of ventricular myocytes and decreasing blood pressure. It is also used for the treatment of endometriosis. The (S)-enantiomer has no pharmacological activity and is not used clinically. The mechanism of action for amlodipine involves binding to the cytosolic Ca2+-ATPase pumps, which are responsible for recycling cytosolic Ca2+ back into the intracellular space. As a result, there is an increase in cytosolic Ca2+, which leads to a decrease in excitability of cardiac myocytes, vasoconstriction, and decreased blood pressure. Amlodipine has been shown to be effective against angiotensin II-induced hypertension in rats by blocking efflux pump activity at the blood-brain barrier.
