Abstract

The mechanisms underlying cardioprotective activity of compound ALM-802 were studied in experiments on rats with chronic post-infarction heart failure. Real-time PCR showed that compound ALM-802 (daily intraperitoneal injections in a dose of 2 mg/kg for 28 days starting from day 91 after myocardial infarction modeling) restored the expression of genes encoding β1- (p=0.00001) and β2-adrenoreceptors (p=0.01) and type 2 ryanodine receptors (p=0.008) in the myocardium that was reduced in control animals. These effects can serve as the basis for the ability of the compound to reduce the intensity of remodeling and increase the inotropic function of the left heart ventricle shown earlier in this model.
