Argimesna (also known as arginine 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate) is a sulfhydryl group-containing molecule, which has no effect on glutathione status or on the total thiol pool, but is an uroprotective agent. Argimesna was investigated for the prevention of haemorrhagic cystitis from ifosfamide (IFO), but these studies were discontinued

It was evaluated the effectiveness of L-arginine mono(2-mercaptoethanesulfonate) (argimesna) to limit the extent of myocardial damage resulting from 60 minutes of severe ischemia followed by 30 minutes of reperfusion in the Langendorff-perfused rabbit heart. The effects of 10(-6) M argimesna were compared with those of 10(-6) M L-arginine and of 10(-6) M sodium salt of 2-mercaptoethanesulfonate (mesna). Pretreatment of the hearts with 10(-6) M argimesna resulted in marked myocardial protection, measured in terms of improved recovery of developed pressure (p less than 0.01), reduced release of creatine kinase (p less than 0.01), maintenance of mitochondrial function and increased stores of ATP on reperfusion (p less than 0.01).
