Description
An ester of pyruvate and salicylic acid that has neuroprotective properties; decreases LDH release and prevents cell death induced by NMDA or zinc, and reduces the production of ROS induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation in mixed rat primary cortical cells when used at concentrations of 10 and 15 mM; reduces infarct volume by 89.9% and decreases expression of IL-1β, iNOS, COX-2, and TNF-α in the brain in a rat model of ischemia induced by MCAO at 10 mg/kg; improves motor performance in the rotarod test in the same model when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg
