PEROXYNITRITE REARRANGEMENT CATALYSTS USED FOR THE TREATMENT OR PROPHYLAXIS OF DISEASES CAUSED BY PEROXYNITRITE-MEDIATED REACTIONS

摘要

The invention relates to the use of paramagnetic 3, 8-substituted porphyrin derivatives comprising different substituents in positions 13 and 17 of the porphyrin skeleton as peroxynitrite rearrangement catalysts for the treatment and prophylaxis of diseases that are characterized by radically mediated cellular damages.
