Biological target:
Meclocycline is a tetracycline antibiotic with broad antimicrobial activity.
In vivo activity:
In a screen of 2000 compounds, six were found to produce significant protection of C. elegans from delayed death. Four of the compounds were tested in an ex vivo mouse heart ischemia/reperfusion model and two, meclocycline and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, significantly reduced infarction size.
