Calcium Channel Ca2+ Channels;Ca Channels Calcium Channel Ca2+ channels;Ca channels Calcium channel is an ion channel which displays selective permeability to calcium ions. It is sometimes synonymous as voltage-dependent calcium channel, although there are also ligand-gated calcium channels. Voltage-gated calcium (CaV) channels catalyse rapid, highly selective influx of Ca 2+ into cells despite a 70-fold higher extracellular concentration of Na +. Some calcium channel blockers have the added benefit of slowing your heart rate, which can further reduce blood pressure, relieve chest pain (angina) and control an irregular heartbeat. www.MedChemExpress.com 1 Calcium Channel Inhibitors & Modulators (+)-Kavain ABT-639 Cat.

Following first pass hydrolysis of ESL, S-licarbazepine (S-Lic) 14 represents around 95 % of circulating active metabolites. S-Lic is the main enantiomer responsible 15 for anticonvulsant activity and this is proposed to be through the blockade of voltage-gated Na+ 16 channels (VGSCs). ESL and S-Lic both have a voltage-dependent inhibitory effect on the Na+ current 17 in N1E-115 neuroblastoma cells expressing neuronal VGSC subtypes including Nav1.1, Nav1.2, 18 Nav1.3, Nav1.6 and Nav1.7.

  • Therapeutic Potential of RQ-00311651, a Novel T-Type Ca
    Research Paper Therapeutic potential of RQ-00311651, a novel T-type Ca21 channel blocker, in distinct rodent models for neuropathic and visceral pain Fumiko Sekiguchia, Yuma Kawaraa, Maho Tsubotaa, Eri Kawakamia, Tomoka Ozakia, Yudai Kawaishia, Shiori Tomitaa, Daiki Kanaokaa, Shigeru Yoshidab, Tsuyako Ohkuboc, Atsufumi Kawabataa,* Abstract 21 T-type Ca channels (T channels), particularly Cav3.2 among the 3 isoforms, play a role in neuropathic and visceral pain. We thus characterized the effects of RQ-00311651 (RQ), a novel T-channel blocker, in HEK293 cells transfected with human Cav3.1 or 21 Cav3.2 by electrophysiological and fluorescent Ca signaling assays, and also evaluated the antiallodynic/antihyperalgesic activity of RQ in somatic, visceral, and neuropathic pain models in rodents. RQ-00311651 strongly suppressed T currents when tested at holding potentials of 265 ; 260 mV, but not 280 mV, in the Cav3.1- or Cav3.2-expressing cells. RQ-00311651 also inhibited high K1-induced Ca21 signaling in those cells. In mice, RQ, administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) at 5 to 20 mg/kg or orally at 20 to 40 mg/kg, significantly suppressed the somatic hyperalgesia and visceral pain-like nociceptive behavior/referred hyperalgesia caused by intraplantar and intracolonic administration of NaHS or Na2S, H2S donors, respectively, which involve the enhanced activity of Cav3.2 channels. RQ-00311651, given i.p. at 5 to 20 mg/kg, exhibited antiallodynic or antihyperalgesic activity in rats with spinal nerve injury–induced neuropathy or in rats and mice with paclitaxel-induced neuropathy. Oral and i.p. RQ at 10 to 20 mg/kg also suppressed the visceral nociceptive behavior and/or referred hyperalgesia accompanying cerulein-induced acute pancreatitis and cyclophosphamide-induced cystitis in mice.

  • Identification of Compounds That Rescue Otic and Myelination
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Identification of compounds that rescue otic and myelination defects in the zebrafish adgrg6 (gpr126) mutant Elvira Diamantopoulou1†, Sarah Baxendale1†, Antonio de la Vega de Leo´ n2, Anzar Asad1, Celia J Holdsworth1, Leila Abbas1, Valerie J Gillet2, Giselle R Wiggin3, Tanya T Whitfield1* 1Bateson Centre and Department of Biomedical Science, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom; 2Information School, University of Sheffield, Sheffield, United Kingdom; 3Sosei Heptares, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract Adgrg6 (Gpr126) is an adhesion class G protein-coupled receptor with a conserved role in myelination of the peripheral nervous system. In the zebrafish, mutation of adgrg6 also results in defects in the inner ear: otic tissue fails to down-regulate versican gene expression and morphogenesis is disrupted. We have designed a whole-animal screen that tests for rescue of both up- and down-regulated gene expression in mutant embryos, together with analysis of weak and strong alleles. From a screen of 3120 structurally diverse compounds, we have identified 68 that reduce versican b expression in the adgrg6 mutant ear, 41 of which also restore myelin basic protein gene expression in Schwann cells of mutant embryos. Nineteen compounds unable to rescue a strong adgrg6 allele provide candidates for molecules that may interact directly with the Adgrg6 receptor. Our pipeline provides a powerful approach for identifying compounds that modulate GPCR activity, with potential impact for future drug design.

    PRODUCT INFORMATION Fantofarone Item No. 26381 CAS Registry No.: 114432-13-2 Formal Name: 3,4-dimethoxy-N-methyl-N-[3-[4-[[2- N (1-methylethyl)-1-indolizinyl]sulfonyl] O phenoxy]propyl]-benzeneethanamine S O Synonym: SR 33557 MF: C31H38N2O5S FW: 550.7 Purity: ≥98% N O UV/Vis.: λmax: 233, 304 nm Supplied as: A crystalline solid O Storage: -20°C O Stability: ≥2 years Information represents the product specifications. Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Fantofarone is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the fantofarone in the solvent of choice. Fantofarone is soluble in organic solvents such as DMSO and dimethyl formamide, which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of fantofarone in these solvents is approximately 10 mg/ml. Description Fantofarone is a calcium channel inhibitor.1 It selectively inhibits the L-type voltage-gated calcium channel in isolated rat aorta (IC50 = 0.61 nM) over α1- and β-adrenergic, muscarinic, and histamine H2 receptors in rat heart homogenates (IC50s = >10, >10, 4, and >10 µM, respectively), and the serotonin receptor subtypes 5-HT1 and 5-HT2, as well as histamine H1 and adenosine A1 receptors, in rat brain homogenates (IC50s = >10, 4, >10, and >10 µM, respectively). Fantofarone inhibits peak calcium current in depolarized 2 and hyperpolarized L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (IC50s = 1.4 and 150 nM, respectively). It inhibits potassium chloride- and norepinephrine-induced contractions in isolated rat aorta (IC50s = 5.64 and 96 nM, respectively).1 It enhances recovery of cardiac output during reperfusion of isolated rat hearts when used at a concentration of 10 nM.3 Fantofarone prevents angioplasty-induced vasospasms in the femoral artery in a rabbit model of focal atherosclerosis when administered at a dose of 50 µg/kg.4 References 1.

  • Summary of Product Characteristics
    SUMMARY OF PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS 1 NAME OF THE MEDICINAL PRODUCT *IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 10mg tablets IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 20mg tablets 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 10 mg tablets Each tablet contains: Manidipine hydrochloride 10mg Excipient with known effect: 119,61 mg lactose monohydrate/tablet IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 20 mg tablets Each tablet contains: Manidipine hydrochloride 20mg Excipient with known effect: 131,80 mg lactose monohydrate/tablet For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM Tablet IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 10mg: pale yellow, round, scored tablet; IPERTEN/ARTEDIL/MANYPER 20mg: yellow-orange, oblong, scored tablet. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1 Therapeutic indications Mild to moderate essential hypertension 4.2 Posology and method of administration The recommended starting dose is 10 mg once a day. Should the antihypertensive effect be still insufficient after 2-4 weeks of treatment, it is advisable to increase the dosage to the usual maintenance dose of 20 mg once a day. Elderly In view of the slowing down of metabolism in the elderly, the recommended dose is 10mg once daily. This dosage is sufficient in most elderly patients; the risk/benefit of any dose increase should be considered with caution on an individual basis. Renal impairment In patients with mild to moderate renal dysfunction care should be taken when increasing the dosage from 10 to 20mg once a day. Hepatic impairment Due to the extensive hepatic metabolisation of manidipine, patients with mild hepatic dysfunction should not exceed 10mg once a day (see also Section 4.3 Contraindications). Tablet must be swallowed in the morning after breakfast, without chewing it, with a few liquid.
