Partial diazoxide responsiveness in a neonate with hyperinsulinism due to homozygous ABCC8 mutation
We report a case of partial diazoxide responsiveness in a child with severe congenital hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (CHI) due to a homozygous ABCC8 mutation.

Glimepiride, a novel sulfonylurea, does not abolish myocardial protection afforded by either ischemic preconditioning or diazoxide [PDF]
Background: The sulfonylurea glibenclamide (Glib) abolishes the cardioprotective effect of ischemic preconditioning (IP), presumably by inhibiting mitochondrial KATP channel opening in myocytes. Glimepiride (Glim) is a new sulfonylurea reported to affect

Hyperglycemia modulates extracellular amyloid-β concentrations and neuronal activity in vivo [PDF]
Epidemiological studies show that patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and individuals with a diabetes-independent elevation in blood glucose have an increased risk for developing dementia, specifically dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Preconditioning with associated blocking of Ca2+ inflow alleviates hypoxia-induced damage to pancreatic β-cells. [PDF]
Beta cells of pancreatic islets are susceptible to functional deficits and damage by hypoxia. Here we aimed to characterize such effects and to test for and pharmacological means to alleviate a negative impact of hypoxia.Rat and human pancreatic islets ...

Background: Myocardial infarction is associated with the autophagy and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes, and the protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (AKT/mTOR) pathway plays a crucial role in this mechanism.

Adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel Kir subunits implicated in cardioprotection by diazoxide [PDF]
BACKGROUND: ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channel openers provide cardioprotection in multiple models. Ion flux at an unidentified mitochondrial K(ATP) channel has been proposed as the mechanism.
