Synthesis of 3- 4-Acyl-2-(1-Methoxy-1-Methylethyl)Morpholin-3-Yl - Benzonitriles as Novel Potassium Channel Openers [PDF]
Potassium channel openers (KCO's) have been demonstrated to possess potent relaxant-activity on smooth muscle. Tissue- selective KCO's may find use in the treatment of a variety of diseases, such as hypertension, asthma, and urinary incontinence. We have

Mitochondrial BK Channel Openers CGS7181 and CGS7184 Exhibit Cytotoxic Properties [PDF]
Potassium channel openers (KCOs) have been shown to play a role in cytoprotection through the activation of mitochondrial potassium channels. Recently, in several reports, a number of data has been described as off-target actions for KCOs. In the present

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 ...

Potassium channel opening: a subtle two‐step
Voltage‐gated K+ channels undergo a voltage‐dependent conductance change that plays a key role in modulating cellular excitability. While the Open state is captured in crystal structures of Kv1.2 and a chimeric Kv1.2/Kv2.1 channel, the Close state and the mechanism of this transition are still a subject of debate.

The intrinsic distortion‐rich lattice of HEPBA with GQD‐enabled microstrain engineering establishes a mechanistic route toward high‐performance alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction. HEPBA inherently feature heterogeneous local coordination environments arising from multimetal incorporation, while properly introducing GQD during coprecipitation ...

Two different types of channels are targets for potassium channel openers in Xenopus oocytes [PDF]
K+ channel openers elicit K+ currents in follicle-enclosed Xenopus oocytes. The most potent activators are the pinacidil derivatives P1075 and P1060. The rank order of potency to activate K+ currents in follicle-enclosed oocytes was: P1075 (K0.5: 5 μM ...

Ionic Precursors Transformed Into Vinyl Acetate Synthesis Catalyst via Reaction‐Driven Restructuring
This work demonstrates that a simple physical mixture of Pd and Au ionic precursors, KOAc promoter, and SiO2 support can transform into a highly active vinyl acetate synthesis catalyst through reaction‐driven restructuring. The results highlight reaction‐induced restructuring as an innovative and sustainable catalyst design strategy.
