The effect of a novel potent Na(+)/H(+) exchange inhibitor, SM-20550 [N-(aminoiminomethyl)-1,4-dimethyl-1H-indole-2-carboxamide methanesulfonic acid], on survival after myocardial infarction was studied. Anesthetized rats underwent occlusion of the coronary artery (30 min) followed by reperfusion (14 days). SM-20550 was administered intravenously before ischemia (1-day treatment group) or before ischemia and on the 2 days following (3-day treatment group). The infarct size was significantly reduced on the 14th day after surgery by approximately 17 and 20% in 1- and 3-day treatment groups, respectively. The survival rate on day 14 was significantly enhanced in both treatment groups (96%) compared with the vehicle-treated control group (70%). These results suggest that SM-20550 improved survival after myocardial infarction, at least due to its antinecrotic effect.

Background: The use of the Ostial Flash balloon (Ostial Corporation) has received limited study in aorto-ostial chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI).
Methods: The authors evaluated the outcomes of Ostial Flash balloon use in a large CTO-PCI registry (PROGRESS-CTO, NCT02061436).
Results: The Ostial Flash balloon was used in 54 of 907 aorto-ostial CTO PCIs in 905 patients (6.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a coronary artery-related disease that seriously threatens human life and is the leading cause of sudden death worldwide, where a lack of nutrients and oxygen leads to an inflammatory response and death of cardiomyocytes. Ferroptosis is a form of non-apoptotic cell death associated with metabolic dysfunction, resulting in abnormal breakdown of glutamine and iron-dependent accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during metabolism. However, the molecular mechanism of ferroptosis in the pathogenesis of MI and the function of Klotho and KRAS on ferroptosis during MI remain unclear.
