Applications Pimobendan is a cardiotonic agent. The study of the cardiotonic mechanism of Pimobendan using ventricular muscles from rabbits and guinea pigs suggests that Pimobendan acts by inhibiting phosphodiesterase III and potassium channel. The potent venodilating action of Pimobendan makes it a suitable treatment option for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) as it also improves systemic vasoconstriction.

Applications Pixantrone is an antineoplastic drug belonging to group of antitumor antibiotics. Pixantrone is an anlogue of Mitoxantrone (M373425) and is just as potent in the treatment of multiple sclerosis with fewer toxic effects on cardiac tissue. Studies suggest that Pixantrone significantly reduces amyloid beta (A beta(1-42)) neurotoxicity, a mechanism implicated in Alzheimer's disease. References Cavalletti, E. et al.: Invest.
