KATP Channel Openers Have Opposite Effects on Mitochondrial Respiration Under Different Energetic Conditions [PDF]
Mitochondrial (m) KATP channel opening has been implicated in triggering cardiac preconditioning. Its consequence on mitochondrial respiration, however, remains unclear. We investigated the effects of two different KATP channel openers and antagonists on

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

Dapagliflozin stimulates glucagon secretion at high glucose: experiments and mathematical simulations of human A-cells. [PDF]
Glucagon is one of the main regulators of blood glucose levels and dysfunctional stimulus secretion coupling in pancreatic A-cells is believed to be an important factor during development of diabetes.

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.

The danger of diazoxide in the neonatal intensive care unit
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.

Successful use of long acting octreotide in two cases with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and severe hypoglycemia [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Hyperinsulinism associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) can occur in about 50% of cases, causing hypoglycemia of variable severity. Parenteral use of octreotide may be indicated if unresponsive to diazoxide.

Necrotizing enterocolitis following diazoxide therapy for persistent neonatal hypoglycemia
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).
