Description

Ethyl methanethiosulfonate is a local anesthetic that inhibits the growth of cells by binding to DNA and RNA. It is used in tracheal intubations to decrease the risk of complication from blood pressure changes. Ethyl methanethiosulfonate has been shown to inhibit the production of growth factor β, which is associated with cavity formation in rats. This drug also has psychiatric effects on patients with depression or anxiety, and can lead to licensing if it is found to be safe for use in clinical trials. In functional assays on cardiac tissue, ethyl methanethiosulfonate showed no effect on the electric conduction of heart cells or their ability to contract.
