A posteriori diagnosis of DRESS syndrome induced by diazoxide in a patient with an insulinoma: a case report and review of the literature

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2023
The Drug Rash with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) syndrome can be potentially life-threatening. The diagnosis is sometimes difficult since the clinical manifestations may be incomplete or non-specific.

Glimepiride, a novel sulfonylurea, does not abolish myocardial protection afforded by either ischemic preconditioning or diazoxide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
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 ...

Effects of Mitochondrial ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channel in Rats with Acute Myocardial Infarction and Its Association with the AKT/mTOR Pathway

open access: yesAnatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2023
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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.
