Aminosterol compounds useful as inhibitors of the sodium/proton exchanger (NHE), pharmaceutical methods and compositions employing such inhibitors, and processes for evaluating the NHE-inhibitory efficacy of compounds
Aminosterol compounds are described that are useful as inhibitors of the sodium/proton exchanger (NHE). Methods of using such aminosterols compounds are also enclosed, including those employing compounds that are inhibitors of a spectrum of NHEs as well as those using compounds that are inhibitors of only one specific NHE. Advantageous screening techniques and essays for evaluating a compounds therapeutic activity are also disclosed.
