Abstract
The invention concerns a novel series of renin-inhibitory branched-backbone peptides which are useful for treating renin associated hypertension, congestive heart failure, and hyperaldosteronism. Processes for preparing the peptides, compositions containing them and methods of using them are included. Also included is a diagnostic test using the compounds to determine the presence of renin-associated hypertension, congestive heart failure, or hyperaldosteronism.
