CVT-4325 Inhibits Myocardial Fatty Acid Uptake and Improves Left Ventricular Systolic Function without Increasing Myocardial Oxygen Consumption in Dogs with Chronic Heart Failure
2007
Background
Inhibition of myocardial fatty acid oxidation has been suggested as a therapeutic approach for improving cardiac function in chronic heart failure (HF). The novel piperazine derivative CVT-4325 was shown to inhibit fatty acid oxidation in cardiac mitochondria and in isolated perfused rat hearts. In the present study, we tested the hemodynamic and metabolic effects of acute intravenous CVT-4325 in dogs with HF.
