Uses

Investigated for use/treatment in burns and burn infections, cardiac surgery, inflammatory disorders (unspecified), ischemic reperfusion injury, and sepsis and septicemia.

How Pyruvic Acid works

CTI-01 inhibits the systemic release of cytokines, such as TNF-alpha and HMGB1, which promote the body's inflammatory response. The over-expression of these cytokines has been linked to diseases that occur in critical care settings, such as severe organ damage following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and post-operative ileus following abdominal surgery.
