Aprikalim
Catalog No. A68153

Aprikalim is a potassium channel activator that primarily targets ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels. It has been shown to enhance KATP channel activity in guinea pig ventricular myocytes, particularly in Mg-NDP solutions, where it reduces ATP sensitivity and increases the K1 value from 56 μM to 180 μM. This property highlights the potential of Aprikalim in modulating cardiac excitability and suggests its relevance in exploring therapeutic strategies for cardiac conditions. Its effects on KATP channel functionality may also provide insights into the enzymatic activity of channel proteins under various experimental conditions.
