Opening of the ATP-dependent K-channels (K(ATP) channels) upon intravenous administration of the cardioselective activator BMS 180448 (3 mg/kg) decreased the ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT) in rats with postinfarction cardiosclerosis (PIC). Preliminary injection of the selective K(ATP) channel blocker glibenclamide (0.3 mg/kg, i.v.) completely abolished the profibrillatory effect of BMS 180448. At the same time, the mitochondrial K(ATP) channel blocker 5-hydroxydecanoic acid (5 mg/kg) did not influence the proarrhythmogen activity of BMS 180448. Simultaneous administration of the sarcoK(ATP) channel inhibitor HMR 1098 (3 mg/kg) and BMS 180448 increased the VFT up to a level in intact animals. Administration of the mitoK(ATP) channel activator diazoxide (5 mg/kg) after preliminary treatment with guanethidine (50 mg/kg) increased the VFT in rats with PIC. It is concluded that opening of the mitoK(ATP) channels increases the cardiac electrical stability in rats with PIC.

The cardioprotective effects of KR-31762, a newly synthesized K+(ATP) opener, were evaluated in rat models of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) heart injury. In isolated rat hearts subjected to 30-min global ischemia followed by 30-min reperfusion, KR-31762 (3 and 10 microM) significantly increased the left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and double product (heart rate x LVDP) after 30-min reperfusion in a concentration-dependent manner, while decreasing the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). KR-31762 also significantly increased the time to contracture (TTC) during ischemic period (20.

To investigate the involvement of reperfusion-induced salvage kinases (RISK) as possible signaling molecules for the cardioprotective effects of BMS-180448, a prototype mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ (mitoK(ATP)) channel opener, we measured its cardioprotective effects in a rat model of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) heart injury, together with western blotting analysis of five different signaling proteins. In isolated rat hearts subjected to 30-min global ischemia followed by 30-min reperfusion, BMS-180448 (1, 3 and 10 microM) significantly increased reperfusion left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP) and 30-min reperfusion double product (heart rate x LVDP) in a concentration-dependent manner, while decreasing left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) throughout reperfusion period in a concentration-dependent manner. SDS-PAGE/western blotting analysis of left ventricle reperfused for 30 min revealed that BMS-180448 significantly decreased phospho-GSK3beta at high concentration, whereas it tended to increase slightly phospho-eNOS and phospho-p70S6K with concentration.

We evaluated the antiplatelet effects of two classes of ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers (K(ATP) openers) on washed human platelets, and the study's emphasis was on the role of mitochondrial K(ATP) in platelet aggregation. Collagen-induced platelet aggregation was inhibited in a dose dependent manner by lemakalim and SKP-450, which are potent cardio-nonselective K(ATP) openers, and also by cardioselective BMS-180448 and BMS-191095 (IC50: 1,130, >1,500, 305.3 and 63.

The cardioprotective effects of (2S,3R,4S)-N'-benzyl- N"-cyano-N-(3,4-dihydro-2-dimethoxymethyl-3-hydro- xy-2-methyl-6-nitro-2H-benzopyran-4-yl)-guanidine (KR-31372) were evaluated against ischemic/reperfusion injury in isolated rat hearts in vitro and in anesthetized rats and dogs in vivo. In isolated perfused rat hearts subjected to a 30-min global ischemia/30-min reperfusion, KR-31372 (1-10 microM) significantly improved severe contracture (end-diastolic pressure and time to contracture), markedly reduced reperfusion lactate dehydrogenase release, and enhanced the recovery of reperfusion contractile function (left ventricular developed pressure and double product) in a concentration-dependent manner compared with the vehicle-treated group. In anesthetized rats subjected to a 45-min coronary occlusion and a 90-min reperfusion, intravenous KR-31372 dose-dependently reduced infarct size from 58.
