MMPSI (Caspase-3/7 Inhibitor I) is a novel, non-peptide small molecule caspase 3 and caspase 7 inhibitor that reduces ischemic injury in isolated rabbit heart or cardiomyocytes and inhibits apoptosis of H16c2 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.MMPSI can be used to study cardioprotection and myocardial injury.

Dexrazoxane (ICRF-187) is an anticancer drug used to block mitosis and arrest dividing cells. It is an iron chelator and provides cardioprotection against anthracycline toxicity.

Oxysophoridine (Sophoridine N-oxide) has a protective effect on focal cerebral ischemic injury through antioxidant and anti-apoptotic mechanisms; it may be a potential neuroprotective agent for cerebral ischemia injury, that the effect may be due to its ability to inhibit oxidative stress and expression of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunit NR1.Oxysophoridine ameliorates cardiac damage in a rat model of AMI and that this cardioprotection may be linked with its anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties.

(±)14(15)-EET is a metabolite of arachidonic acid that is formed via epoxidation of arachidonic acid by cytochrome P450.[1],[2] It prevents increases in leukotriene B4, ICAM-1, and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 1 (CCL2) induced by oxidized LDL in primary rat pulmonary artery endothelial cells (RPAECs) when used at a concentration of 1 μM.[3] (±)14(15)-EET induces dilation of preconstricted isolated canine coronary arterioles (EC50 = 0.2 pM).[4] It reduces myocardial infarct size as a percentage of the area at risk in a canine model of ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) occlusion when administered at a dose of 0.128 mg/kg prior to occlusion or reperfusion.[5] Reference:[1].

GLP-1(28-36)amide, a C-terminal nonapeptide derived from the cleavage of GLP-1 by neutral endopeptidase (NEP), is an important compound that functions as an antioxidant primarily targeting the mitochondrion to inhibit mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), displaying anti-diabetic properties and cardioprotection effects[1].

GLP-1(28-36)amide acetate inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition with antioxidant, anti-diabetic and cardioprotection activities.

F 15845 is a potent and persistent blocker of the sodium current. It possesses cardioprotective properties and exhibits both anti-ischemic activity and short- and long-term cardioprotection following myocardial infarction. Furthermore, F 15845 finds utility in the investigation of myocardial functional impairment [1].

Licochalcone C (LICOCHALCONEC) has potent antioxidant properties and inhibition of bacterial growth and cellular respiration. It has cardioprotection effect, via antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic activities. Licochalcone C exhibit inhibitory activity with cytotoxicity in a rat basophilic leukaemia cell line, RBL-2H3. Licochalcone C induces apoptosis via B-cell lymphoma 2 family proteins in T24 cells, it may be a potential adjuvant therapeutic agent for bladder cancer.

VCP-746 is a potent adenosine A2B receptor agonist that stimulates anti-fibrotic signalling. VCP746 reduces hypertrophy in a rat neonatal cardiac myocyte model. VCP746 is a hybrid molecule consisting of an adenosine moiety linked to an adenosine A1 receptor (A1AR) allosteric modulator moiety. At the A1AR, VCP746 mediated cardioprotection in the absence of haemodynamic side effects such as bradycardia.

Vasonatrin Peptide (VNP) TFA, a chimeric compound derived from atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), exhibits venodilating properties reminiscent of CNP, natriuretic effects akin to ANP, as well as unique arterial vasodilating capabilities not characteristic of either parent peptide. Additionally, VNP TFA confers cardioprotection in diabetic ischemia-reperfusion injury by attenuating endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress through the cGMP-PKG signaling cascade [1] [2] [3].
