ABSTRACT:
Bucillamine and N-2,2-dimethyl-3-mercaptopropionyl)-L-cysteine or related compounds can be used to prevent damage to living tissue from the formation or presence of reactive oxygen species. These reactive oxygen species are formed when tissue is first rendered hypoxic due to interruption of blood flow and then reoxygenated by restoration of blood flow. In particular, the invention is directed to the administration of bucillamine and N-2,2-dimethyl-3-mercaptopropionyl)-L-cysteine prior to or coincidental with reperfusion to prevent damage to myocardium from formation of reactive oxygen species. Also presented are application of these compounds to similar ischemia-related cell injury in other organs.
