(R)-Verapamil is an enantiomer of the calcium channel blocker Verapamil, primarily acting on sodium channels with an IC50 of 3.19 μM. It exhibits agonistic activity on somatostatin receptor 2 (SSTR2), with an EC50 of 1.3 μM. In preclinical studies, (R)-Verapamil has demonstrated the ability to downregulate TXNIP protein expression and inhibit β-cell apoptosis in diabetic mouse models, contributing to effective blood glucose control. Additionally, it can be utilized as a PET tracer to assess P-glycoprotein function, making it a valuable tool in metabolic and pharmacological research.
