Field of application

Description: SKA-121 is a selective KCa3.1 activator. SKA-121 exhibits EC50s of 109 nM and 4.4 μM for KCa3.1 and KCa2.3, respectively.
Target: EC50: 109 nM (KCa3.1), 4.4 μM (KCa2.3)[1]
In Vivo: In blood pressure telemetry experiments, SKA-121 (100 mg/kg i.p.) significantly lowers mean arterial blood pressure in normotensive and hypertensive wild-type but not in KCa3.1-/- mice. SKA-121 can be used as a new KCa3.1 selective pharmacological tool compound despite its relatively short half-life in mice. A lower dose of 30 mg/kg of SKA-121 does not produce significant alterations in MAP. The vehicle, peanut oil/DMSO (9:1 v/v, for SKA-121), does not cause significant alterations in MAP or HR. SKA-121 has a short half-life (~20 minutes), and plasma decay is extremely rapid (21.3±2.4 μM at 5 minutes; 483±231 nM at 1 hour and 53±44 nM at 4 hours). Since SKA-121 is relatively well soluble (logP=1.79) and can potentially be added to drinking water in animal experiments, it orally is also administered, and find that it has an oral availability of roughly 25%[1].
In Vitro: SKA-121, a compound generated through an isosteric replacement approach. SKA-121 is a typical positive-gating modulator and shifts the calcium-concentration response curve of KCa3.1 to the left. SKA-121 displays 41-fold selectivity for KCa3.1 (EC50 109 nM±14 nM) over KCa2.3 (EC50 4.4 ± 1.6 μM). SKA-121 is 200- to 400-fold selective over representative KV (KV1.3, KV2.1, KV3.1, and KV11.1), NaV (NaV1.2, NaV1.4, NaV1.5, and NaV1.7), as well as CaV1.2 channels[1].
Kinase Assay: To fully evaluate the selectivity of the naphthooxazole SKA-121, seven-point concentration-response curves on KCa2.1, KCa2.2, KCa2.3 and KCa3.1 are determined with 250 nM free Ca2+ in the internal solution[1].
Animal Administration: Mice[1] Twelve-week-old male C57Bl/6J mice are used. For i.v. application, SKA-121 is dissolved at 5 mg/mL in a mixture of 10% CremophorEL and 90% phosphate-buffered saline and then injected at 10  mg/kg into the tail vein (n=8 mice per compound). Another group of mice (n=8) receive SKA-121 orally. At various time points after the injection, blood is collected into EDTA blood sample collection tubes either from the saphenous vein or by cardiac puncture under deep isoflurane anesthesia. After the cardiac puncture, mice are sacrificed by cutting the heart, and then the brain is removed. Individual mice are typically used for three times points (two blood collections from the saphenous vein plus the terminal blood collection).

DC73675 VU0546110 VU0546110 (VU 0546110) is a potent, selective inhibitor of the sperm-specific potassium channel SLO3 with IC50 of 1.29 uM, impairs sperm function.
DC70426 GAT1508 GAT1508 (GAT-1508) is a potent, specific activator for brain-expressed GIRK1/2 channels (EC50=75 nM), specifically activates the brain GIRK1/2 over the cardiac GIRK1/4; GAT1508 is an allosteric modulator of channel–phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate interactions. GAT1508 effectively extinguished conditioned fear in rodents and lacked cardiac and behavioral side effects, suggesting its potential for use in pharmacotherapy for post-traumatic stress disorder.
DC48873 DPO-1 DPO-1 is a potent inhibitor of the voltage-gated potassium channel subtype Kv1.5 and a blocker of ultrarapid delayed rectifier potassium current. DPO-1 prevents atrial arrhythmia.
DC47376 Rimtuzalcap Rimtuzalcap (CAD-1883) is a first-in-class selective positive allosteric modulator of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (SK channels). Rimtuzalcap can be used for the research of movement disorders including essential tremor (ET) and spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA).
DC41224 Minoxidil sulfate Minoxidil sulfate, a potent and ATP-sensitive K+ channel opener, is the sulfated metabolite of minoxidil. Minoxidil sulfate is considered as a vasodilator to promote hair growth in vivo.
DC41048 A2793 A2793 is an efficient TWIK-related acid-sensitive K+ channel (TASK)-1 inhibitor, with an IC50 of 6.8 μM.
DC39089 H3B-120 H3B-120 is a competitive, selective and allosteric inhibitor of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1 (CPS1) with IC50 of 1.5 μM and Ki of 1.4 μM. H3B-120 exhibits anti-tumor activity.
DC28951 A2764 dihydrochloride A2764 dihydrochloride is a highly selective inhibitor of TRESK (TWIK-related spinal cord K+ channel, K2P18.1), which has moderate inhibitory effects on TREK-1 and TALK-1. A2764 dihydrochloride is more sensitive to the activated mTRESK channels (IC50=6.8 μM) than the basal current. A2764 dihydrochloride can lead to cell depolarization and increased excitability in native cells, it has the potential for probing the role of TRESK channel in migraine and nociception.

Desethylamiodarone hydrochloride is formed by CYP3A isoenzymes. Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic agent for inhibition of ATP-sensitive potassium channel with an IC50 of 19.1 μM.
DC28263 NS8593 hydrochloride NS8593 hydrochloride is a potent and selective small conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (SK channels) inhibitor. NS8593 hydrochloride reversibly inhibits SK3-mediated currents with a Kd value of 77 nM.
