More Info
Biological target:
Bimakalim is an ATP-sensitive potassium channel opener.
In vitro activity:
Pretreatment with bimakalim restores the response expected in the absence of hypoxia, and glibenclamide blocks the effect of bimakalim or further impairs the response to dobutamine when used alone before long-duration hypoxia. Evidence is provided for protective effects of the K(ATP) opener bimakalim on the human myocardial contractile function in conditions of hypoxia/reoxygenation, at concentrations at which negative inotropism and APD90 shortening are not contributory. Reference: J Cardiovasc Pharmacol. 1999 Jul;34(1):162-72. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10413083/
In vivo activity:
Ventricular ERP and repolarization were significantly shortened only by the second and third dose of BIM (bimakalim). Of 14 pigs receiving the highest BIM dosage, 3 revealed polymorphic VTs degenerating into ventricular fibrillation (VF). These data suggest that high BIM doses may lead to faster and more aggressive pacing-induced reentrant VTs after subacute MI.
