The mitochondrial K-ATP channel opener diazoxide upregulates STIM1 and Orai1 via ROS and the MAPK pathway in adult rat cardiomyocytes

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2020
Background Openers of mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium (mKATP) channels like diazoxide increase reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in cardiac cells and reduce Ca2+ elevations produced by ischemia–reperfusion, protecting the ...

Pharmacological Preconditioning with Diazoxide in the Experimental Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Hypothermic circulatory arrest includes a remarkable risk for neurological injury. Diazoxide, a mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium ion (K+ATP) channel opener, is known to have cardioprotective effects.

The danger of diazoxide in the neonatal intensive care unit

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Drug Safety, 2021
Background: The most common cause of persistent hypoglycemia in infancy is hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. When conservative measures fail, providers often use medications to treat persistent hypoglycemia.

A new familial form of a late-onset, persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy caused by a novel mutation in KCNJ11. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) functions as a metabo-electric transducer in regulating insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. The pancreatic KATP channel is composed of a pore-forming inwardly-rectifying potassium channel, Kir6.2, and a ...

Diazoxide and Exercise Enhance Muscle Contraction during Obesity by Decreasing ROS Levels, Lipid Peroxidation, and Improving Glutathione Redox Status

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2020
Obesity causes insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia which causes skeletal muscle dysfunction resulting in a decrease in contraction force and a reduced capacity to avoid fatigue, which overall, causes an increase in oxidative stress.

ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel-Mediated Lactate Effect on Orexin Neurons: Implications for Brain Energetics during Arousal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Active neurons have a high demand for energy substrate, which is thought to be mainly supplied as lactate by astrocytes. Heavy lactate dependence of neuronal activity suggests that there may be a mechanism that detects and controls lactate levels and/or ...

A Deep Clinical and Biochemical Characterization of a Patient With Combined Malonic and Methylmalonic Aciduria (CMAMMA). [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Rep
ABSTRACT Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is an inborn error of metabolism caused by a deficiency in mitochondrial malonyl‐CoA synthetase, the enzyme responsible for activating malonic acid (MA) to malonyl‐CoA, a precursor of lipoic acid.

Necrotizing enterocolitis following diazoxide therapy for persistent neonatal hypoglycemia

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020
Recalcitrant neonatal hypoglycemia poses a treatment challenge for clinicians. When a patient's hypoglycemia does not respond to dextrose infusion, several medication options are available, including diazoxide(1,2).
