Abstract
The present invention is directed to cell-protective, in particular, cardio- and renal-protective organic compounds, preferably to organic compounds that inhibit substrate phosphorylation by the G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2, ADRBK1). Preferably, the organic compounds inhibit the GRK2-mediated phosphorylation of serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SRSF1, ASF-1, SF2) and/or phosducin for treating hypertension, heart diseases, heart dysfunction or failure and heart disease-associated pathologies, e.g. cardiomyocyte necrosis, ischemic cardiac disease and/or ischemic heart damage or ageing. Furthermore, the present invention is directed to a method for the identification of inhibitors of the (GRK2)-mediated phosphorylation of (SRSF1) and/or phosducin.
