SYDNEY, July 26 (Xinhua) -- Researchers at Monash University in Australia are developing a new drug that could help prevent heart disease and stroke and hope it can be used to treat blood vessel blockages caused by the new coronavirus.
researchers found that an enzyme in the plateplate accelerates plateplate coagulation before a heart attack or stroke. So they developed a drug that temporarily inhibits plateplate clotting, which prevents blood vessels from clogging and prevents heart disease and stroke.
researchers say the drug only inhibits plateplate coagulation in the event of signs of a heart attack or stroke. Because studies have shown that similar blood vessel blockages are one of the leading causes of death in patients with neo-coronary severity, researchers hope the drug could be used in the future for the treatment of such severe patients.
, the drug has worked well in animal model experiments, and researchers are preparing for the next phase of human clinical trials. The findings have been published in the American journal Science Translational Medicine.
