Synthesis and characterization of ND8008.
(a) Chemical synthesis of ND8008. (b) The NO release rate of ND8008 in vitro was analysed by the Griess assay. 5-isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN) was used as a positive control and dexamethasone (Dex) was used as a negative control. (c) Compound toxicity on murine peritoneal macrophages. For the Control, the same volume of ethanol was added to saline.
