Brophenexin (compound 8) is a potent inhibitor of the interaction interface between NMDA receptors (NMDAR) and TRPM4 channels, exhibiting significant neuroprotective activity. It prevents NMDA-induced excitotoxicity, including cell death and mitochondrial dysfunction in hippocampal neurons, with an IC₅₀ of 2.1 μM. In vivo, Brophenexin protects against brain damage in mice subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and preserves retinal ganglion cells from NMDA-induced degeneration. These findings support its potential as a therapeutic agent for neurodegenerative diseases and ischemic brain injury.
