Thyroid hormone can have positive effects on the cardiovascular system but its therapeutic potential is limited secondary to its adverse effects. DITPA (3,5-diiodothyroproprionic acid) is a synthetic thyroid hormone analog with positive inotropic effects similar to thyroid hormone but with

Thyroid hormone has unique properties affecting the heart, and the vasculature and cholesterol metabolism. There is interest in using thyromimetic agents as possible treatment options for heart failure based on data demonstrating the ability of these agents to improve systolic

This study was designed to determine if the thyroid hormone analog 3,5 diiodothyropropionic acid (DITPA), now in clinical trials for heart failure, alters endothelial function after myocardial infarction (MI). Three weeks after MI, adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to

There is emerging evidence that treatment with thyroid hormone (TH) can improve postischemic cardiac function. 3,5-Diiodothyropropionic acid (DITPA), a TH analog, has been proposed to be a safer therapeutic agent than TH because of its negligible effects on cardiac metabolism

Patients with hypothyroidism are at a higher risk for coronary vascular disease. Patients with diabetes and related vascular complications also have an increased incidence of low thyroid function. While thyroid hormones (THs) may be key regulators of a healthy vasculature
