Application
The protonophoric activity of S-15176 difumarate salt was studied in mitochondria isolated from livers of Wistar rats.5
Biochem/physiol Actions
Antioxidant and anti-ischemic agent. Also inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition, prevents the early step in apoptosis by preventing collapse of the electrochemical gradient across the mitochondrial membrane. IC50 for in vitro lipid peroxidation is 0.3 μM. IC50 for carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT-1) in heart homogenate is 16.8 μM. The shift from fatty acid to glucose oxidation may contribute to anti-ischemic effect.
S-15176 suppresses the mitochondrial permeability transition in response to calcium ions and inorganic phosphate and inhibits the release of cytochrome c in response to silver ions. It exhibits weak protonophoric activity.5
