Biochem/physiol Actions

Cu-ATSM is an orally bioavailable, blood-brain barrier permeable complex that specifically inhibits the action of peroxynitrite on Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) and subsequent nitration of cellular proteins. Cu^II(ATSM) significantly delayed onset of disease (paralysis and prolonged lifespan) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mice model. Also, Cu-ATSM was reported to lower lipid peroxidation in a model of ischemicreperfusion injury. Cu-ATSM subsequently was shown to inhibit ferroptosis with a potency similar to Liproxstatin-1.
