EUK-8 is a salen manganese complex that exhibit potent antioxidant activities.
EUK-8 is a salen manganese complex that exhibit potent antioxidant activities. EUK-8 is a superoxide dismutase (SOD) that inhibits amyloid fibril formation, including islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), β-amyloid and lysozyme amyloid aggregation. It appears that EUK-8 disrupts the pre-formed amyloid fibrils. EUK-8 increases the viability of the SK-N-MC cells exposed to preformed IAPP fibrils.

Increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a vital role in the pathogenesis of various diseases. Thus, antioxidants would play pivotal roles in the therapy of ROS-induced diseases. Regarding this fact, in the present study, we compared the relative
We are reporting the synthesis, characterization, and calf thymus DNA binding studies of novel chiral macrocyclic Mn(III) salen complexes S-1, R-1, S-2, and R-2. These chiral complexes showed ability to bind with DNA, where complex S-1 exhibits the highest DNA
Oxidative stress, an imbalance between endogenous levels of oxygen radicals and antioxidative defense, increases with aging. However, it is not clear which of these two factors is the more critical. To clarify the production of oxygen radicals increases with age
Salen-manganese complexes, such as EUK-8 and EUK-134 are known as catalase mimetics with superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase mimetic activity. Here we show that the concentration-dependent use of salen-manganese complexes within the appropriate time window and with parallel control of

Mice lacking manganese-superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) activity exhibit the typical pathology of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In the present study, presymptomatic and symptomatic mutant mice were treated with the SOD/catalase mimetic, EUK-8. Presymptomatic heart/muscle-specific Mn-SOD-deficient mice (H/M-Sod2(-/-)) were treated with EUK-8 (30
