Popis: Recent studies have shown the importance of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K ATP ) in cardioprotection, and studies in vitro have shown that the benzopyran analog (3 R )- trans - 4-((4-chlorophenyl)- N -(1 H -imidazol-2-ylmethyl)dimethyl-2 H -1-benzopyran-6-carbonitril monohydrochloride (BMS-191095) is a selective mitochondrial K ATP opener with cardioprotective activity. The goal of this study was to show selective cardioprotection for BMS-191095 in vivo without hemodynamic or cardiac electrophysiological effects expected for nonselective K ATP openers. BMS-191095 reduced infarct size in anesthetized dogs (90-min ischemia + 5-h reperfusion) in a dose-dependent manner (ED 25 = 0.4 mg/kg i.v.) with efficacious plasma concentrations of 0.3 to 1.0 μM, which were consistent with potency in vitro. None of the doses of BMS-191095 tested caused any effect on peripheral or coronary hemodynamic status. Further studies in dogs showed no effects of BMS-191095 on cardiac conduction or action potential configuration within the cardioprotective dose range. In a programmed electrical stimulation model, BMS-191095 showed no proarrhythmic effects, which is consistent with its lack of effects on cardiac electrophysiological status. BMS-191095 is a potent and efficacious cardioprotectant that is devoid of hemodynamic and cardiac electrophysiological side effects of first generation K ATP openers, which open both sarcolemmal and mitochondrial K ATP . Selective opening or activation of mitochondrial K ATP seems to be a potentially effective strategy for developing well tolerated and efficacious K ATP openers.
