Modulation of KATP channels by diazoxide preserves mitochondrial function and barrier integrity under staurosporine‐induced epithelial stress

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 12, Page 3213-3233, June 2026.
Background and Purpose Intestinal barrier dysfunction caused by mitochondrial stress, oxidative damage and apoptosis, are hallmarks of dysbiosis‐associated gastrointestinal (GI) disorders. Staurosporine causes downstream features of dysbiosis‐induced epithelial damage.

Kir6.1- and SUR2-dependent KATP overactivity disrupts intestinal motility in murine models of Cantú syndrome

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2020
Cantú syndrome (CS), caused by gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in pore-forming (Kir6.1, KCNJ8) and accessory (SUR2, ABCC9) ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel subunit genes, is frequently accompanied by gastrointestinal (GI) dysmotility, and we ...

ATP-sensitive potassium channels gene polymorphism rs1799858 affects the risk of macro-/micro-vascular arteriosclerotic event in patients with increased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2020
Background Plasma concentration of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is causally related to the risk of arteriosclerotic events. Whether ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KATP) genetic variants predict increased LDL-C concentration (≥1.8 mmol/L)

The Voice of Cantú: Lower Voice Pitch Is a New Phenotypic Feature of Cantú Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1062-1068, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cantú syndrome (CS) is a rare genetic condition caused by pathogenic variants in either ABCC9 or KCNJ8, leading to gain‐of‐function of KATP‐channels. The main clinical features are hypertrichosis and cardiovascular abnormalities. This study investigates the voice characteristics in individuals with CS, an aspect that has received little ...

Pathophysiological Consequences of KATP Channel Overactivity and Pharmacological Response to Glibenclamide in Skeletal Muscle of a Murine Model of Cantù Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Cantù syndrome (CS) arises from mutations in ABCC9 and KCNJ8 genes that lead to gain of function (GOF) of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels containing SUR2A and Kir6.1 subunits, respectively, of KATP channels.

Mitochondrial Homeostasis in Pancreatic β Cell Function: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Targets for Diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes, Volume 18, Issue 5, May 2026.
This review highlights mitochondrial dysfunction as a central driver of pancreatic β cell failure in diabetes, caused by disrupted mitochondrial quality control (MQC), oxidative stress, and impaired organelle communication. Emerging therapies, such as DRAK2 inhibitors and metabolic reprogramming agents, show promise in restoring β cell function by ...

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

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

Alterations in ventricular KATP channel properties during aging

open access: yes, 2013
Coronary heart disease remains the principle cause of mortality in the United States. During aging, the efficiency of the cardiovascular system is decreased and the aged heart is less tolerant to ischemic injury.

Both Mitochondrial KATP Channel Opening and Sarcolemmal KATP Channel Blockage Confer Protection Against Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Arrhythmia in Anesthetized Male Rats

open access: yes, 2010
Aim: This study was performed to assess the effect of selective sarcolemmal adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive K+ channel (KATP) inhibition and the mitochondrial KATP channel activation on ischemia and reperfusion (I/R)-induced arrhythmias in ...

KATP channels in cerebral hemodynamics: a systematic review of preclinical and clinical studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology
Cumulative evidence suggests that ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels act as a key regulator of cerebral blood flow (CBF). This implication seems to be complicated, since KATP channels are expressed in several vascular-related structures such as ...
