Articaine is a selective inhibitor of voltage-gated sodium channels, including rNav1.4, hNav1.7, and rNav1.8, demonstrating an IC50 of 15.8 μM for open-state Na+ channels. It effectively blocks Na+ influx, leading to local anesthetic effects and interruption of nerve impulse conduction. Additionally, Articaine exhibits anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting NF-κB activation and the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway. This compound is valuable for research in dental anesthesia and inflammatory-related conditions, such as acute kidney injury.
