Myocardial Infarction: Understanding
Myocardial Infarction: Overview
A myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, is the irreversible necrosis of heart muscle due to prolonged ischemia, usually caused by a blockage in the arteries that supply blood to the heart. If a healthcare provider doesn’t restore blood flow quickly, a heart attack can cause permanent heart damage and death. The lack of blood flow can occur because of many different factors but is usually related to a blockage in one or more of the coronary arteries. Treatment for a heart attack aims to restore blood flow to the affected heart muscle as soon as possible, and it can involve various methods, such as medication, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass grafting. Several key factors affect the risk of having a heart attack, including family history, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and smoking.The symptoms of a heart attack can vary, but common symptoms include chest pain, discomfort, pain or discomfort in the jaw, neck, or back, shortness of breath, and nausea. It's important to seek emergency medical help if you experience any of these symptoms. Early and rapid electrocardiogram (ECG) testing is essential for diagnosis, with ECG being about 95% to 97% specific to myocardial infarction.
Lifestyle changes such as controlling high-fat, cholesterol, and salt diet, reducing alcohol consumption and smoking, regular exercise, weight control, blood pressure monitoring, stress reduction, and keeping aspirin for chest pain are recommended for prevention and management of myocardial infarction. The immediate treatment of MI includes taking aspirin, nitroglycerin, and oxygen. To prevent heart attacks, it's important to take earlier action to lower risks by controlling diet, fat, cholesterol, salt, smoking, nicotine, alcohol, and drugs. The treatment of MI also includes the use of thrombolytic or clot-dissolving drugs, painkillers, and antihypertensive drugs to lower blood pressure and improve the heart's oxygen demand.

Myocardial Infarction Emerging Drugs Chapters
This segment of the Myocardial Infarction report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.Myocardial Infarction Emerging Drugs
FDY 5301: Faraday PharmaceuticalsFDY-5301 is a patented, formulated, elemental reducing agent containing sodium iodide. It works to catalytically destroy hydrogen peroxide, which is naturally generated as a response to acute ischemia-reperfusion injury and contributes to loss of muscle mass and function. Preclinical studies of FDY-5301 have demonstrated its ability to reduce infarct size, improve cardiac function, and improve skeletal muscle function. Phase I data has demonstrated no signs of toxicity in healthy subjects. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of Clinical trial evaluation for the treatment of Myocardial Infarction.Zalunfiban: CeleCor TherapeuticsZalunfiban (RUC-4), a next generation GPI, is specifically designed to be administered subcutaneously to inhibit platelet aggregation for a first-point-of-medical contact treatment to improve outcomes for STEMI patients. Inhibiting platelet aggregation can slow or stop blood clot formation leading to coronary artery blockage, and in turn, can stop or prevent a heart attack. Zalunfiban targets platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptors, the final common pathway in platelet aggregation, to inhibit all platelet activators and can, under some conditions, promote recanalization of occluded arteries. In contrast, other antiplatelet medications, including P2Y12 inhibitors and aspirin, inhibit only one platelet activator and have not been demonstrated to promote recanalization. Further, due to decreased gastrointestinal absorption, oral P2Y12 inhibitors given before the procedure to open the artery do not act rapidly or reliably enough in STEMI patients during the crucial early minutes of a heart attack and have not demonstrated a clinical benefit to date. Currently, the drug is in Phase III stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of myocardial infarction.
MEDI6570: AstraZenecaMEDI6570, which AstraZeneca is developing, inhibits the LOX-1 receptor (anti-LOX-1 mAb). Blockade of the receptor reduced cytokine release via the NFkappaB pathway, inhibited monocyte adhesion, prohibited monocyte differentiation to foam cells and smooth muscle cell apoptosis, and improved endothelial function. MEDI6570 is suitable for post-MI patients with high residual risk attributed to inflammation via direct inhibition of multi-ligand scavenger receptor involved in oxidized LDL pathogenesis and inflammation. It is currently being investigated in the Phase II stage of development for the treatment of coronary heart disease.
RTP 026: ResoTher PharmaRTP-026 is developed as a new and innovative way to modulate the inflammatory response that occurs in the heart during the recovery phase of a myocardial infarction. Especially in the subset of patients showing high inflammatory activity, there is a need for novel treatments to reduce the risk of reinfarction and other major cardiovascular events. Upon formyl peptide type 2 receptor stimulation the RTP-026 compound induces a combination of anti-inflammatory and pre-resolving effects which in experimental models of myocardial infarction has profound effect not only on reducing the infarction size compared to placebo treatment, but importantly to restore cardiac function to a pre-infarction level. Currently, the drug is in Phase I stage of its clinical trial for the treatment of myocardial infraction.
