Pharmacodynamics

M40403 treatment exerts a protective effect against ischaemia-reperfusion-induced myocardial injury, supporting a key role for superoxide anion in reperfusion injuries.

Mechanism of action

M40403 is the lead candidate in a unique class of compounds known as superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetics. These stable, low molecular weight compounds mimic the effect of superoxide dismutase, a naturally occurring enzyme designed to destroy superoxide free radicals present in various diseases associated with pain and inflammation.
