| Bioactivity | Rimeporide hydrochloride (EMD-87580 hydrochloride) is a potent and selective inhibitor of the Na+/H+ exchanger (NHE-1). |
| Target | NHE1 |
| Invitro | Blocking NHE-1 activity has been shown to decrease intracellular Na+ and Ca2+ overload and pH and Rimeporide (EMD-87580) represents a new therapeutic option for duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Rimeporide (EMD-87580) is expected to act as a muscle-sparing agent and its mode of action means that it is mutation independent[1]. |
