    摘要: The present invention provides methods and composition of a novel mechanism using the bioenergetic Cyclocreatine Phosphate as a potent cardioprotective drug by preserving cellular energy source, preventing ischemic injury, rejuvenating organ function, thus, maintaining normal physical activity. Cyclocreatine Phosphate can be used as a new therapeutic approach to prevent disease development and progression, and to treat ischemia-induced diseases in ischemic heart disease patients, including: coronary artery disease, unstable angina, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, as well as provides cardioprotection during cardiac procedures and surgeries. The invention further provides methods and composition to prevent and treat aging-related neurodegenerative diseases where hypoxia/ischemia play a key role in the development and progression of the disease. More specifically, the present invention provides Cyclocreatine Phosphate as a new therapeutic approach to prevent disease development and progression, as well as to treat patients with brain ischemia (stroke) and Alzheimer's disease.
