Imisopasem manganese is a small-molecule, non-peptidyl mimetic of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) that functions as a superoxide dismutase mimetic. It removes superoxide anions while sparing other reactive species implicated in inflammatory responses, and is used as a research reagent in studies of oxidative stress, inflammation, and related signaling pathways.
- Mimics MnSOD activity to scavenge superoxide anions.
- Does not interfere with nitric oxide or peroxynitrite signaling.
- Stable, low molecular weight synthetic compound.
- Well characterized with a defined molecular formula and molecular weight.
- Available in multiple solid pack sizes for research use.
