Abstract
Disclosed herein are N-methanocarba derivatives of AMP and their use in the treatment of cardiac and vascular diseases and conditions responsive to activation of the cardiac P2X receptor. In one embodiment, the N-methanocarba derivative of AMP is the N-methanocarba derivative of 2-chloro-AMP. Diseases and conditions responsive to activation of the cardiac P2X receptor include, for example, cardiac hypertrophy, cardiac failure resulting from any cause of abnormal Cahomeostasis or from myocardial injuries, vascular insufficiency leading to myocardial infarction, post-myocardial infarction conditions, post-myocardial infarction conditions within the short-term post-infarction period, and diastolic heart failure.
