White Crystalline Solid | [Uses]
Causes vasodilation by activation of potassim channels | [Biological Activity]
Prototypical K ATP channel opener. Relaxes rabbit isolated portal vein with an IC 50 value of 21 nM . Potent, orally active and hypotensive in vivo . | [Description]
(±)-Cromakalim is a prototypical activator of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel, SUR2-Kir6, that displays anti-ischemic (EC25 = 8.9 μM) and cardioprotective (IC50 = 0.03 μM) effects in rat hearts. (±)-Cromakalim has also been shown to relax bladder smooth muscle in vitro. It has been used to investigate potassium channel biology and as a scaffold to develop increasingly selective K+ channel openers with clinical relevance. | [Definition]
ChEBI: Cromakalim is a 1-benzopyran. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Cromakalim is an activator of the potassium channel. It is involved in the relaxation of the vascular smooth muscles. Cromakalim exhibits anti-hypertensive activity. | [References]
