Welcome to hemoCORM

hemoCORM Ltd is a London based company that is establishing a leading position in an exciting and emerging pharmacological field – the use of carbon monoxide as a therapeutic agent.

We are developing a novel class of therapeutic agents: compounds that release carbon monoxide (CO) under defined conditions. The compounds have been developed following the discovery that CO, like nitric oxide, is a naturally occurring chemical messenger that, in physiological doses, has anti-inflammatory, hypotensive and anti-apoptotic properties and can suppress graft rejection and protect tissues from ischemic damage.

Carbon monoxide releasing molecules offer new opportunities for treating disease.

Several groups of scientists are developing compounds that slowly release carbon monoxide directly into the bloodstream and could be used to treat diseases as diverse as high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer.
