pirenoxine

Description:

Pirenoxine, with the CAS number 1043-21-6, is a chemical compound primarily known for its application in ophthalmology. It is classified as a pyrimidine derivative and is recognized for its role as a protective agent for the retina. The substance exhibits antioxidant properties, which help in mitigating oxidative stress in retinal cells, making it beneficial in the treatment of certain eye conditions, such as retinitis pigmentosa and other degenerative retinal diseases. Pirenoxine is typically administered in the form of eye drops, allowing for localized treatment with minimal systemic absorption. Its mechanism of action involves stabilizing cell membranes and preventing damage from free radicals. Additionally, pirenoxine has been studied for its potential neuroprotective effects, contributing to its therapeutic profile. While it is generally well-tolerated, like any medication, it may have side effects, and its use should be guided by a healthcare professional. Overall, pirenoxine represents a significant advancement in the field of ocular therapeutics.

Pirenoxine

CAS: 1043-21-6

Pirenoxine is a synthetic drug that is used as an antimicrobial agent. It has been shown to protect corneal endothelial cells from oxidative injury. Pirenoxine reacts with the sulfhydryl groups of proteins and forms disulfide bonds. This reaction prevents protein denaturation and protects against oxidative stress by scavenging free radicals. The structure of pirenoxine was determined using particle-beam and synchronous fluorescence techniques, which showed it to have a calcium binding site in addition to its previously known calcium pantothenate site. Pirenoxine has been shown to have a physiological function of regulating the release of catecholamines from adrenal medulla or from nerve terminals in response to stimulation by acetylcholine or other agonists.
