| Name | N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide |
| Description | N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide is a non-toxic, potent, reversible, and specific myeloperoxidase (MPO) tripeptide inhibitor that effectively inhibits MPO production in vivo, attenuates neuronal damage, preserves brain tissue and neurological function post-stroke, and inhibits MPO-dependent hypochlorite (HOCl) production, protein nitration, and LDL oxidation. It is also used in the study of bronchial dysplasia. |
| In vivo | N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide (KYC) (10 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 3-7 days; C57BL/6J mice) significantly reduces neurological severity scores and infarct size in MCAO mice.[1]
N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide (10 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 7 days) significantly protects BBB function and decreased neutrophil infiltration.[1]
N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide (10 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 7 days; C57BL/6J mice) significantly reduces microglia/macrophage activation and neuron loss in MCAO mice.[1]
N-Acetyl lysyltyrosylcysteine amide (10 mg/kg; i.p.; daily for 3-7 days; C57BL/6J mice) decreases apoptosis and cell injury in the brains of MCAO mice.[1]
