Abstract:

We previously developed IM-54 as a novel type of inhibitor of hydrogen-peroxide-induced necrotic cell death. Here, we examined its cell death inhibition profile. IM-54 was found to selectively inhibit oxidative stress-induced necrosis, but it did not inhibit apoptosis induced by various anticancer drugs or Fas ligand, or necroptosis. IM-17, an IM derivative having improved water-solubility and metabolic stability, was developed and confirmed to retain necrosis-inhibitory activity. IM-17 showed cardioprotective effects in an isolated rat heart model and an in vivo arrhythmia model, suggesting that IM derivatives may have therapeutic potential.
