pubmed:abstractText |
Myocarditis is an inflammatory disorder of the heart in which T lymphocytes have a central role. No effective treatment is currently at hand for management of the myocarditis. Lymphocyte function requires the active signal transducer Ras. We thus hypothesized that S-farnesylthiosalicylic acid (FTS), a synthetic small molecule that detaches Ras from the inner cell membrane and induces its rapid degradation, will attenuate experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM).
