  • Patent number: 7816352
    Abstract: The present invention provides compounds that act as selective agents to protect against unintentional cell death or tissue damage and can relieve side effects of cancer treatment such as, for example, oral mucositis, hair loss, diarrhea due to damage to the gastrointestinal epithelium, and myelosuppression. In addition, these compounds can be used to prevent premature cell death when the cell death is caused by signals from damaged cells, for example, signals generated as the result of a traumatic incident or an ischemic episode.
