Istaroxime hydrochloride
Istaroxime hydrochloride(PST2744) is a novel inhibitor of Na+/K+-ATPase with IC50 value of 0.43±0.15μM [1].
In vitro studies show that Istaroxime can inhibit the activity of Na+/K+-ATPase from dog kidney without significant interaction with other several receptors. It demonstrates the selectivity of Istaroxime. Ex vivo studies show the inotropic effect can be achieved up to 60% for Istaroxime. Istaroxime can also increase the force of contraction of guinea pig paced left atria in the range 0.3 to 30μM. In vivo assays prove Istaroxime is consistently safer than digoxin [1].
Istaroxime is a steroidal drug unrelated to cardiac glycosides that improves cellular calcium cycling. The inhibition of Na+/K+-ATPase induces cytosolic calcium accumulation during systole (inotropism). Clinical studies has been done with istaroxime in phase II. Istaroxime could be a promising alternative for patients with acute heart failure syndrome for whom the therapeutic options are currently limited [2].

Applications |
Resting Ca2+ was similarly increased by istaroxime (from 61.3 to 92.4 nM). Istaroxime increased [Ca]SR-tot by 47%. Istaroxime increased the amount of Ca2+ extruded by the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (CaNCX) during caffeine-induced transients (+130). Istaroxime shortened the time elapsing between the start of the caffeine pulse and SR Ca2+ release. |

Applications |
Heart function of istaroxime-treated hamsters was comparable to that of healthy animals, and had a significantly higher LVSP and both positive and negative dP/dT when compared with that of vehicle-treated animals. Coronary flow rate in hearts isolated from istaroxime-treated hamsters was higher than that from vehicle-treated Bio TO.2 animals. Besides that, Bio TO.2 hamsters treated with istaroxime had both time and frequency domain indexes of HRV, i.e. standard deviation of R-R intervals, TP, LF and HF, augmented with respect to vehicle-treated animals. Moreover , the LF/HF ratio of istaroxime-treated animals was similar to that observed in Bio F1B hamsters. |

Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
