ATP-Sensitive potassium channels: a review of their cardioprotective pharmacology.
نویسندگان
چکیده
ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K(ATP)) have been thought to be a mediator of cardioprotection for the last ten years. Significant progress has been made in learning the pharmacology of this channel as well as its molecular regulation with regard to cardioprotection. K(ATP)openers as a class protect ischemic/reperfused myocardium and appear to do so by conservation of energy. The reduced rate of ATP hydrolysis during ischemia exerted by these openers is not due to a cardioplegic effect and is independent of action potential shortening. Compounds have been synthesized which retain the cardioprotective effects of first generation K(ATP)openers, but are devoid of vasodilator and cardiac sarcolemmal potassium outward currents. These results suggest receptor or channel subtypes. Recent pharmacologic and molecular biology studies suggest the activation of mitochondrial K(ATP)as the relevant cardioprotective site. Implications of these results for future drug discovery and preconditioning are discussed.

Anti-nociceptive effect of cimetidine in mice: the role of ATP-sensitive potassium channels
Recent studies have shown that intracerebroventricular administration of cimetidine (CIM) induces anti-nociceptive and anti–inflammatory effects in rats. However, the underlying mechanism of CIM effect has not been determined yet. This study was planned to determine the anti-nociceptive effect of CIM (50 mg/kg, i.p.) in male mice (25-30 g, n = 80) using tail flick test. Also, the role of ATP-se...

متن کاملSynthesis and Vasorelaxant Effect of 9-aryl-1,8-acridinediones as Potassium Channel Openers in Isolated Rat Aorta
ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel openers have a relaxation effect due to the lower cellular membrane potential and inhibit calcium influx. There has been considerable interest in exploring KATP channel openers in the treatment of various diseases such as cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and urinary system disease and premature labor. The purpose of this study was to synthesize 3,3,6,6-tet...

متن کاملEvidences on the existence of a new potassium channel in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) of rat hepatocytes
Introduction: we have recently reported the presence of two potassium currents with 598 and 368 pS conductance in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) membrane. The 598 pS channel was voltage dependent and ATP sensitive. However, the 368 pS channel was rarely observed and its identity remained obscure. Since cationic channels in intracellular organelles such as mitochondria and RER play imp...
