by P Henry 2024 Cited by 19which potassium channel openers open K- ,-P channels is the subject of the present review. The potassium channel opener class of drugs' comprises: (1 )
Progesterone, androgen and estrogen receptor agonists/antagonists; Sodium channel blocking drugs; : Potassium channel blocking and opening
Antiarrhythmic drugs; : Antiulcer drugs; : Immunosuppressive agents Potassium channel blocking and opening drugs; : N-Methyl-D-aspartic
Potassium-channel openers are drugs that activate (open) ATP-sensitive K -channels in vascular smooth muscle. Opening these channels hyperpolarizes the smooth muscle, which closes voltage-gated calcium channels and decreases intracellular calcium.
Neuronal potassium channel openers are a class of drugs mainly used to treat seizures (anticonvulsant or antiepileptic drugs) in adults. Neuronal potassium channel opener reduces seizure by targeting the potassium channel present throughout the nerves. Opening of the potassium channel decreases the excitability of nerves. When nerve
BMS- is a potent and effective opener of two important subtypes of neuronal potassium channels, the calcium-activated, big-conductance potassium channels (K(Ca) channels) and voltage-dependent, non-inactivating potassium channels known as KCNQ channels.
beta-Adrenergic receptor agonists/antagonists; : Dopamine receptor Sodium channel blocking drugs; : Potassium channel blocking and opening
The main drugs discussed are nitrates, beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, and potassium channel openers.
