5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula (I) is a cis isomer or a trans isomer.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the oligomer of the compound of Formula (I) comprises cis isomers, trans isomers, or a combination of cis and trans isomers.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the subject is a rodent, a research animal, a companion animal, an agricultural animal, or a human.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the half life of the compound of Formula (I) is greater than about 30 minutes.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is administered to the subject in an amount ranging from about 10 mg to about 30 mg per kilogram of the subject, and the compound is administered to the subject once every 4 to 6 hours for about 24 hours.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compound is administered to the subject in an amount of about 10 mg per kilogram of the subject, and the compound is administered to the subject once every six hours for about 18 hours.
11. A method for treating acute kidney injury during sepsis, the method comprising administering a monomer or an oligomer of a compound of Formula (I) to a subject experiencing sepsis, such that acute kidney injury in the subject is treated, the compound of Formula (I):
wherein:
R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , and R 10 are independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, hydrocarbyl, substituted hydrocarbyl, hydrocarbyloxy, substituted hydrocarbyloxy, or sulfoxy; provided that at least one of the R groups is a hydroxyl or substituted hydroxyl group; and provided that if the compound of Formula (I) is monomeric, then the compound of Formula (I) is other than a compound in which R 1 , R 3 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , and R 10 are hydrogen, R 2 , R 4 , and R 8 are independently hydroxyl, alkoxy, or glucosyloxy, and R 9 is hydrogen or hydroxyl.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 8 , R 9 , and R 10 are independently hydrogen, hydroxyl, alkyl, alkenyl, alkyoxy, alkenyloxy, aryloxy, glucuronidyloxy, glucosyloxy, or sulfoxy.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein R 1 , R 5 , R 6 , R 7 , R 9 , and R 10 are hydrogen; R 3 is alkenyl; and R 2 , R 4 , and R 8 are independently hydroxyl, alkoxy, glucuronidyloxy, or sulfoxy.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein R 1 , R 5 , R 6 , R 9 , and R 10 are hydrogen; R 3 is hydroxyl or alkenyl; and R 2 , R 4 , R 7 , and R 8 are independently hydroxyl, alkoxy, glucuronidyloxy, or sulfoxy.
15. The method of claim 11 , wherein the compound of Formula (I) is a cis isomer or a trans isomer.
16. The method of claim 11 , wherein the oligomer of the compound of Formula (I) comprises cis isomers, trans isomers, or a combination of cis and trans isomers.
