| Pinacidil Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Pinacidil is a peripheral vasodilator useful in the management of arterial hypertension of
all degrees of seventy, usually in combination with a diuretic or beta-blocker. Preclinical
evidence suggests that its hypotensive effect may be attributed to potassium channel
activation. | Originator | Leo (Denmark) | Uses | cardiac stimulant | Uses | Pinacidil monohydrate has been used:
- in repolarization studies by infusing into left anterior descending artery (LAD)
- to induce ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) current in ventricular myocytes for electrophysiological studies
- as a KATP opener to treat myocardial cells
| Uses | Pinacidil Monohydrate is a K+ channel opener, used to induce relaxation of serotonin-produced contractions in porcine and human arterial rings. Vasodilator. Antihypertensive agent. | Definition | ChEBI: Pinacidil is an organic molecular entity. | Brand name | Pindac (Leo). | Biochem/physiol Actions | Pinacidil is a KATP channel agonist. It protects cardiomyocytes by preventing loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. It prevents the caspase 3 activation in hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. | References | 1) Hermsmeyer et al.
