Molecular Aspects Implicated in Dantrolene Selectivity with Respect to Ryanodine Receptor Isoforms
Dantrolene is an intra-cellularly acting skeletal muscle relaxant used for the treatment of the rare genetic disorder, malignant hyperthermia (MH).

Current clinical application of dantrolene sodium
Dantrolene sodium (DS) was first introduced as an oral antispasmodic drug. However, in 1975, DS was demonstrated to be effective for managing malignant hyperthermia (MH) and was adopted as the primary therapeutic drug after intravenous administration ...

Purpose Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare genetic disorder but one of the most severe complications of general anesthesia. The mortality rate of MH has dropped from 70% in the 1960s to 15% because of dantrolene, the only currently accepted specific ...

Dantrolene inhibition of ryanodine channels (RyR2) in artificial lipid bilayers depends on FKBP12.6
Dantrolene, an inhibitor of the cardiac calcium release channel (RyR2), is a lead compound for stabilizing overactive RyR2 in heart failure. We find that dantrolene inhibition requires RyR2 association with FKBP12.6, which in turn depends on RyR2 ...

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a rare life-threatening response that is triggered by exposure to specific anesthetics commonly used during surgical interventions. Dantrolene is a well-known drug used as the first-line therapy for MH.

BACKGROUND: Patients susceptible to malignant hyperthermia (MH) may experience disabling manifestations of an unspecified myopathy outside the context of anesthesia, including myalgia, fatigue, or episodic rhabdomyolysis.

Dantrolene is currently the only drug known to specifically treat malignant hyperthermia (MH) crises. Although dantrolene attenuates Ca2+ disorders by acting mainly on the ryanodine receptor type 1 (RYR1), some patients who manifest MH without RYR1 ...

Electromagnetic fields modulate neuronal membrane ionic currents through altered cellular calcium homeostasis. [PDF]
Electromagnetic fields (50 Hz, 1 mT) affect hippocampal CA1 neuron excitability by reducing membrane currents. These effects, blocked by agents targeting calcium signaling pathways, suggest EMFs influence neuronal function via disruption of Ca2⁺ homeostasis and voltage‐gated channel regulation. Abstract The biological effects of electromagnetic fields (
