Neltenexine
Neltenexine, a mucolytic agent, is an Elastase inhibitor. Neltenexine diminishes anion secretion in in bronchial epithelial cells by inhibiting the Cl− and HCO3- uptake via Na/K/2Cl++− and Na+/HCO3- cotransporter without blockade of the CFTR channel, and also diminishes anion secretion via stimulation of Cl−/HCO3- exchanger. Neltenexine significantly prevents pulmonary emphysema with a reduction of alveolar deformation in rat models induced by Elastase. Neltenexine can be used for lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) research.
