[0082] Preparation of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) and Platelet-Poor Plasma (PPP)
[0083] The rabbits fasted for 12-18 h were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection with a 20% urethane solution. The common carotid artery was separated, and a polyethylene tube was inserted into the common carotid artery to collect blood. The blood was injected into a siliconized centrifuge tube containing 1/10 by volume of a 3.8% sodium citrate solution. The blood was gently mixed with the anticoagulant uniformly, and centrifuged at 1000 rpm for 15 min. The upper beige suspension was pipetted to obtain the platelet-rich plasma (PRP). The remaining plasma was centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 min, and the supernatant was pipetted to prepare the platelet-poor plasma (PPP). The PRP was adjusted with the PPP to make the platelet count at 1×10.sup.8/mL.
[0084] Determination of Platelet Aggregation Rate by Turbidimetry at 37° C.
[0085] 260 μL of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was added into a turbidimetric tube. Then 10 μL of test compounds with different concentrations, positive control drugs or normal saline were separately added, and the plasma was incubated at 37° C. for 5 min. Then 30 μL of inducers were added in sequence. The final concentration of an inducer ADP is 10 μM, and the final concentration of an inducer AA is 1 mM. The maximum aggregation rate within 5 min was determined by an aggregometer, and the inhibition rate of the drugs on platelet aggregation was calculated. Inhibition rate of platelet aggregation (IRPA)=(platelet aggregation rate of the control group−platelet aggregation rate of the experimental group)/platelet aggregation rate of the control group×100%.

Example 16: Antithrombotic Activity
[0087] 1. Effect on Bleeding Time in Mice after Tail Cutting
[0088] Test Animals:
[0089] SPF Kunming mice, weighing 18-22 g, purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd., having a certificate number of SCXK (Beijing) 2010-0002, raised in an SPF animal room with indoor temperature controlled at 23±2° C., and allowed to freely eat and drink. The day and night time was 12 h/12 h.
[0090] Test Method:
[0091] 48 Kunming mice, weighing 18-22 g, half male and half female, were randomly divided into 8 groups: negative control group, ASP group, clopidogrel group, ASP+clopidogrel group, I.sub.1s group, I.sub.1s+Aspirin group, I.sub.1s+clopidogrel group, and I.sub.1s+aspirin+clopidogrel group. The administration dose level of the positive drug groups and the test drug groups was 5 mg/kg, and the same amount of normal saline was given to the negative control group. All mice were administered for 14 consecutive days orally once a day. One hour after the last dose, the mice were anesthetized with 1-2% isoflurane, and the tails were cut for 5 mm. The tips of the tails were absorbed dry with filter paper every 30 seconds until the bleeding stopped naturally. Bleeding time is defined as the interval between the start and stop of bleeding.

[0093] Conclusion: The bleeding time of mice under the action of compound I.sub.1s is equivalent to that of the positive drug clopidogrel, and longer than that of aspirin, suggesting that I.sub.1s has a better anticoagulation effect than aspirin.
[0094] 2. Effect on Arteriovenous Bypass Thrombosis in Rats
[0095] Test Animals:
[0096] Male SD rats, weighing 250-280 g, purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd., raised in an SPF breeding environment with indoor temperature controlled at 23±2° C., and allowed to freely eat and drink. The total number of the animals is 64.
[0097] Test Groups:
[0098] Model group: injected with the same volume of normal saline (containing 1% DMSO) through the tail vein, and administered continuously for 7 days. The test was started 2 h after the last dose (n=8).
[0099] Test drug groups: Aspirin group, S—NBP(S-butylphthalide) group, Edaravone group, PHPB(potassium (R/S)-2-(1-hydroxy-n-pentyl) benzoate) group, I.sub.1 group, I.sub.1r group, and I.sub.1s group. The dose of all drugs was 10 mg/kg/day. The drugs were formulated into normal saline solutions containing 1% DMSO, and injected through the tail vein for 7 consecutive days. The test was started 2 hours after the last dose (n=8).
[0100] Test Method:
[0101] The rats were intraperitoneally injected with a 3% pentobarbital sodium solution (30 mg/kg). After anesthesia, the rats were immobilized in the supine position, and a median cervical incision was made to separate the right common carotid artery and left external jugular vein. A 6 cm long suture was put in the middle of a polyethylene tube (the suture needs to be weighed before being put in the tube), and the polyethylene tube was filled with heparin saline (50 U/mL). The polyethylene tube was inserted into the separated blood vessels to make the artery and vein form a loop. After 15 min of circulation of the blood flow, the suture was taken out, and the suture with thrombus was collected and weighed immediately. Then, after the suture was dried at room temperature for 24 h, the dry weight was determined. The total weight minus the weight of the suture was the wet weight of the thrombus, and the dry weight minus the weight of the suture was the dry weight of the thrombus. Thrombosis inhibition rate (%)=(wet/dry weight of thrombus in the model group−wet/dry weight of thrombus in the administration group)÷wet/dry weight of thrombus in the model group×100%

[0104] Conclusion: Compared with the model group, 10 mg/kg of aspirin, S—NBP, Edaravone, PHPB, I.sub.1s, I.sub.1 and I.sub.1r can significantly reduce the wet and dry weight of thrombus in rats (p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01). The inhibitory effect of compound I.sub.1s on thrombosis in rats is significantly stronger than the same dose of aspirin, S—NBP and Edaravone (p<0.01, p<0.01, p<0.01).
Example 17: Effects on Cerebral Infarction, Cerebral Edema and Nerve Function of Rats with Focal Cerebral Ischemia
[0105] Test Animals:
[0106] SPF SD rats, weighing 200-220 g, half male and half female, purchased from Beijing Vital River Laboratory Animal Technology Co., Ltd., raised in an SPF breeding environment with indoor temperature controlled at 23±2° C., and allowed to freely eat and drink. The total number of the animals was 88.
[0107] Test Groups:
[0108] Sham operation group: equal volume of normal saline (containing 1% DMSO) (iv. 3 days), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8);
[0109] Model group: equal volume of normal saline (containing 1% DMSO) (iv. 3 days, administration 2 h after reperfusion), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8);
[0110] S—NBP (S-butylphthalide) group, Edaravone group, and PHPB (potassium R/S-2-(1-hydroxy-n-pentyl) benzoate) group: 10 mg/kg/day (iv. 3 days, administration 2 h after reperfusion), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8);
[0111] I.sub.1, I.sub.r, I.sub.1s, and I.sub.7s groups: 10 mg/kg/day (iv. 3 days, administration 2 h after reperfusion), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8);
[0112] Equimolar S-APB (S-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl)benzoic acid)+Arg (arginine) combined administration group: (S-APB 5.89 mg/kg+Arg 4.10 mg/kg)/day (iv. 3 days, administration 2 h after reperfusion), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8);
[0113] Equimolar S-APB+AGH (aminoguanidine hydrochloride) combined administration group: (S-APB 7.72 mg/kg+AGH 3.41 mg/kg)/day (iv. 3 days, administration 2 h after reperfusion), TTC, cerebral edema and neurological function score (n=8).
[0114] Test Method:
[0115] The middle cerebral arteries of the rats were blocked by a suture-occluded method, and reperfused after 2 h. 2 h after perfusion, the rats were injected with S—NBP, Edaravone, PHPB, I.sub.1, I.sub.1r, I.sub.1s, I.sub.7s, equimolar combination of S-APB and arginine, equimolar combination of S-APB and aminoguanidine hydrochloride, and an equal volume of normal saline (containing 1% DMSO) in the tail vein. All drugs were formulated into normal saline solutions containing 1% DMSO for administration, and the duration of administration was controlled at approximately 1 min. The drugs were administered for the first time 2 h after reperfusion, and were administered once every 24 h for a total of 3 times. 2 h after the last administration, the neurological defect scores were firstly obtained, and then the rats of each group were sacrificed. The whole brains were taken out and weighed (wet weight), TTC stained, and dried to determine the effects of the compounds on cerebral infarction and cerebral edema.
[0116] Neurological Defect Score
[0117] 2 h after the last administration, the neurological defects of the animals were graded and scored by the Longa's method. The criteria are as follows: 0 point: no neurological signs are observed; 1 point: when the animal is suspended with its tail being lifted, the operation contralateral forelimb of the animal exhibits wrist and elbow flexion, shoulder internal rotation, elbow abduction, and closeness to the chest wall; 2 points: when the animal is placed on a smooth surface and the shoulder of the operation side is pushed to the opposite side, the resistance decreases; 3 points: when the animal walks freely, the animal turns or turns around to the opposite side of the operation; and 4 points: the animal exhibits flaccid paralysis, and no spontaneous movement of the limbs are observed.
[0118] TTC Staining
[0119] After the neurobehavioral examination was completed, four coronal incisions were made on the whole brains of the rats on the optic chiasma and 2 mm anteroposterior positions of the optic chiasma. After the whole brains were cut into five slices, the brain slices were quickly placed in 5 ml of phosphate buffer solution containing 2% TTC, and incubated at 37° C. in the dark. In the incubation process, the brain slices were turned once every 5 min. After 10 min of incubation, the brain slices were taken out and pictures were taken with a digital camera (Olympus C-4000, Japan). Then the pale area (infarct area) and non-pale area (normal area) were separated by using ophthalmic forceps, and the infarct percentage was calculated by Image pro-plus 6.0 as follows:
Infarct percentage (%)=weight of pale area/(weight of pale area+weight of non-pale area)×100%;
Infarction area inhibition rate (%)=(infarct percentage of model group (%)−infarct percentage of administration group (%))/infarct percentage of model group (%)×100%.
[0120] The stained brain tissue was dried in an oven at 105° C., and weighed (dry weight) after 24 h. The calculation formula of brain water content is as follows:
Water content of brain tissue (%)=(wet weight of brain tissue−dry weight of brain tissue)/wet weight of brain tissue×100%;
Cerebral edema rate (%)=water content of brain tissue of each group (%)−water content of brain tissue of sham operation group (%)/water content of brain tissue of sham operation group (%)×100%;
Inhibition rate of cerebral edema (%)=(rate of cerebral edema of model group (%)−rate of cerebral edema of administration group (%))/rate of cerebral edema of model group (%)×100%.

[0123] Conclusion: L-arginine S-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl) benzoate (I.sub.1s) has the most significant inhibitory effects on cerebral infarction and cerebral edema in rats and significant neurological improvement effects on rats with focal cerebral ischemia 2 h after reperfusion, is better than the equimolar dose of S-APB and L-arginine in combination, and is better than the same dose of S—NBP, PHPB and Edaravone.
[0124] The method for testing the effects of L-arginine (R/S)-2-(1-hydroxy-n-pentyl) benzoate (AHPB) on cerebral infarction, cerebral edema and neurological function of rats with focal cerebral ischemia is the same as above, and the results are as follows:

[0126] Conclusion: At the same time of reperfusion or 2 h after perfusion, intravenous injection of low-dose (5 mg/kg) AHPB has no significant difference in the effects of improving cerebral infarction, cerebral edema and neurological function in rats with focal cerebral ischemia compared with NBP (5 mg/kg), while middle and high doses (10, 20 mg/kg) of AHPB are better than NBP (5 mg/kg) in improving cerebral infarction and cerebral edema, and are equivalent to NBP (5 mg/kg) in improving the neurological function.
Example 18: Pharmacokinetics
[0127] Test Animals:
[0128] 12 clean SD male rats, provided by Qinglongshan Animal Breeding Farm in Jiangning District, Nanjing. The production license number is SCXK (Jiangsu) 2017-0001. The body weight of the rats ranges from 180 to 220 g. The rats were used after being raised in the laboratory of an experimental animal center for 2 days after purchase, fasted for 12 hours before administration and 6 hours after administration, and were allowed to freely drink during the test period.
[0129] Test Method:
[0130] The rats were injected with L-arginine (S)-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl) benzoate (I.sub.1s) (25 mg/kg) in the tail veins, and blood was taken from the fundus venous plexus of the rats at various time points. The concentration of the original drugs and metabolites in the rat blood were determined by LC-MS/MS, and WinNonlin pharmacokinetics professional software and a statistical moment method were used for calculation to obtain the corresponding pharmacokinetic parameters.
[0131] Test Result:
[0132] 1. The compound I.sub.1s was rapidly metabolized into corresponding carboxylic acid and L-arginine in the body. The active metabolite (S)-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl)benzoic acid (abbreviated as metabolite M2), (S)-2-(1-hydroxy-n-pentyl)benzoic acid (the deacetylation product of M2) (M3) and (S)—NBP (M4) were detected in the plasma 2 min after administration, wherein M2 and M4 were the main metabolites, and the concentration of the intermediate metabolite M3 was relatively low.
[0133] 2. After intravenous injection, the blood concentration first declined rapidly with time, which might be related to rapid distribution of the drug in the body. Subsequently, the blood concentration dropped relatively slowly and entered an elimination phase. In combination with the semi-logarithmic-time curve of blood concentration, the drug basically conforms to the characteristics of a two-compartment model (see
[0134] 3. According to the pharmacokinetic parameters, the half-lives (t.sub.1/2) of the main active metabolites M2 and M4 in plasma were both about 3 h (see Table 9), and were longer than the half-lives of NBP (44 min) and PHPB (45 min) (Acta Pharmacol Sin., 2018, 39, 275-285).
[0135] 4. According to the pharmacokinetic parameters, the apparent volumes of distribution Vz and clearance rates CL of M2, M3, and M4 were relatively large, suggesting that they were widely distributed in the body and could be quickly distributed from plasma to peripheral tissue or brain tissue (See Table 9).

[0136] 5. The active metabolites M2, M3, and M4 could all be detected in brain tissue. The concentration of M4 in the brain is higher than those of equimolar doses of NBP and PHPB (Acta Pharmacol Sin., 2018, 39, 275-285), and the M2, M3, and M4 were quickly eliminated over time, indicating that the M2, M3, and M4 could all pass through the blood-brain barrier, were beneficial to play a role in the brain tissue, and would not accumulate in the brain for a long time to cause toxicity (see Table 10 and

[0137] Conclusion: The compound L-arginine (S)-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl) benzoate (I.sub.1s) has excellent pharmacokinetic properties.

[0140] Test Method:
[0141] The inhibition percentage of each sample on COX-1 and COX-2 was determined. The calculation formula is as follows: Inhibition rate (%)=(RFU100% enzyme activity control−RFU sample)/(RFU100% enzyme activity control−RFU blank control)×100%, wherein RFU is the relative fluorescence unit. For an inhibitor found to be effective, the IC.sub.50 value was determined after testing the dose effect of the inhibitor.
[0142] Test Result:
TABLE-US-00011 TABLE 11 IC.sub.50 values of compounds inhibiting the activity of COX-1 and COX-2 IC.sub.50 (μM) Compd. COX-1 COX-2 Aspirin 24.27 ± 2.15 1132 ± 76.51 I.sub.1s 56.41 ± 3.79 1279 ± 102.5
[0143] Conclusion: The activity of the compound I.sub.1s in inhibiting COX-1 is significantly lower than that of aspirin, suggesting that the compound I.sub.1s has less adverse reactions of the gastrointestinal tract than aspirin. The activity of the compound I.sub.1s in inhibiting COX-2 is close to that of aspirin, suggesting that both the compound I.sub.1s and aspirin have considerable inhibitory effects on COX-2 mediated inflammation.

[0144] 1. Acute Toxicity Test
[0145] Test Animals:
[0146] ICR mice, provided by Shanghai Lingchang Biotech Co., Ltd. The laboratory animal production license is SCXK (Shanghai) 2013-0018, the certificate number is 2013001834483, and the laboratory animal use license is SYXK (Jiangsu) 2017-0015. The mice are aged 5-6 weeks, weighing 18-22 g, female; and the number of animals is 50.
[0147] Test Method:
[0148] On the basis of the preliminary experiment, the concentration gradient in the acute toxicity test of I.sub.1s was set to: 1500, 1300, 1100, 900, 700 mg/kg; and the corresponding drug concentration was: 150, 130, 110, 90, 70 mg/mL. The test drug was prepared into drug solutions of corresponding concentration for isometric administration (tail vein injection) once, various symptoms of poisoning and death in mice were recorded, and the dead animals were subjected to autopsy. The observation period is 14 days.
[0149] Test Result:
[0150] After the mice were injected with a higher dose of I.sub.1s in the tail vein, the mice had convulsions and decreased activity, and some mice died after 24 h. The dead mice in each group were dissected, and there was congestion in the precordial area, and no obvious abnormalities in the other organs. The body weight changes of each sample group are shown in Table 12, and the death distribution and LD.sub.50 value (Bliss method) calculation results are shown in Table 13.

[0151] Conclusion: The LD.sub.50 value of intravenous administration of the compound L-arginine (S)-2-(1-acetoxy-n-pentyl) benzoate (I.sub.1s) is 1119.5038 mg/kg.
[0152] 2. Test of Effect on hERG Potassium Channel
[0153] Using automatic patch clamp detection technology, the effects of the compound I.sub.1s and (S)—NBP on the hERG potassium channel of CHO-hERG cells at different administration concentrations were investigated. The results show that the IC.sub.50 of I.sub.1s and (S)—NBP are both greater than 40 μM, but the inhibition rate (37.56%) of I.sub.1s at the maximum concentration is lower than that of (S)—NBP (41.45%), suggesting that the toxicity of the I.sub.1s to the heart may be lower than that of the (S)—NBP.
[0154] 3. Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test
[0155] Microbial reverse mutation test (Ames test) was performed on the compound I.sub.1s to determine whether I.sub.1s has potential mutagenicity. The test bacteria are the histidine-deficient TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA102 strains of Salmonella typhimurium, and the dose range of the test sample is 0.1-1000 μg/dish. The test was performed under parallel conditions with and without a mixture of mammalian hepatomicrosome enzyme (S9), and the results were all negative.
