research Influence of the alkylsulfonylamino substituent located at the 6-position of 2,2-dimethylchromans structurally related to cromakalim: From potassium channel openers to calcium entry blockers?
New compounds similar to cromakalim were less effective at inhibiting insulin release but improved in solubility and one acted as a calcium entry blocker, not a potassium channel opener.
research K channel therapeutics at the bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Comparison of the effects of the K+-channel openers cromakalim and minoxidil sulphate on vascular smooth muscle
Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.
research Human hair follicles contain two forms of ATP‐ sensitive potassium channels, only one of which is sensitive to minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Minoxidil prevents 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine-induced serotonin depletions: role of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels, Akt and ERK
Minoxidil prevents serotonin loss from MDMA by affecting potassium channels and increasing Akt phosphorylation.
research Immunohistochemical, pharmacovigilance, and omics analyses reveal the involvement of ATP-sensitive K+ channel subunits in cancers: role in drug–disease interactions
ATP-sensitive K+ channel subunits, particularly Sur2A, play a significant role in various cancers.
research Effect of minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil on single potassium channel current in cultured human outer root sheath cells and dermal papilla cells
Minoxidil sulfate and pinacidil may promote hair growth through increased blood flow, not by activating potassium channels.
research The action of diazoxide and minoxidil sulphate on rat blood vessels: a comparison with cromakalim
Diazoxide, minoxidil sulphate, and cromakalim relax rat blood vessels by opening K+ channels, with some differences in their actions.
research Pharmacological evidence for the involvement of adenosine triphosphate sensitive potassium channels in chloroquine-induced itch in mice
ATP-sensitive potassium channels play a role in chloroquine-induced itch in mice.
research Skin Conditions in Figure Skaters, Ice-Hockey Players and Speed Skaters
Ice-skating athletes often have skin problems due to cold, infections, and inflammation, needing careful treatment and prevention.
research The necessity of investigations to clarify sex and racial disparities in pathophysiology of Long COVID
More research is needed to understand sex and racial differences in long COVID.
research Blocking Potassium Channels (Kv1.3): A New Treatment Option for Alopecia Areata?
Kv1.3 blockers may help treat alopecia areata and promote hair regrowth.
research State-dependent signaling by Cav1.2 regulates hair follicle stem cell function
Cav1.2 affects hair growth and could be a target for hair loss treatments.
research A Study of the Expression of Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels (SK1-3) in Sensory Endings of Muscle Spindles and Lanceolate Endings of Hair Follicles in the Rat
SK2 channels help control sensory signals in rat muscle spindles and hair follicles.
research The Bis(1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline) Alkaloids Cepharanthine and Berbamine Are Ligands of SK Channels
Cepharanthine and berbamine may affect SK channels, influencing their therapeutic effects.
research Combination therapy profoundly improved skin flap survival by modulating KATP channels and nitric oxide
The combination of azelaic acid, minoxidil, and caffeine significantly increased the survival of skin flaps by affecting certain body channels and nitric oxide levels.
research Role of BK channels and Kv4.2 channels in the electrophysiological properties of Merkel cells in rat whisker hair follicles
BK and Kv4.2 channels help Merkel cells in rat whiskers sense touch.
research Emerging Roles for Ion Channels in Ovarian Cancer: Pathomechanisms and Pharmacological Treatment
Ion channels play a key role in ovarian cancer growth and treatment resistance.
research The ATP sensitive potassium channel (KATP) is a novel target for migraine drug development
Blocking the KATP channel may help treat migraines.
research Synaptic‐like vesicles and candidate transduction channels in mechanosensory terminals
SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.
research Hypertension: sex-related differences in drug treatment, prevalence and blood pressure control in primary care
Women experience more side effects and have worse blood pressure control from hypertension treatments than men, despite using different medications.
research Drug-associated gingival disorders: a retrospective pharmacovigilance assessment using disproportionality analysis
Certain medications can cause gum problems, so patients and healthcare providers should be aware and monitor oral health.
research Repurposing Kir6/SUR2 Channel Activator Minoxidil to Arrests Growth of Gynecologic Cancers
Minoxidil can stop the growth of ovarian cancer cells without harming the heart.
research Rapid Characterization of the Functional and Pharmacological Consequences of Cantú Syndrome KATPChannel Mutations in Intact Cells
Kir6.1 mutations in Cantú syndrome increase channel sensitivity and hyperpolarization, while SUR2B mutations do not.
research Adverse effects of common medications on male fertility

research Psychotropic Medication and Drug-Related Alopecia
Some psychiatric medications can cause reversible hair loss.
research Potassium channel openers: pharmacological and clinical aspects
Potassium channel openers could help treat cardiovascular diseases and asthma but require better targeting to specific tissues for effective use.
research Potassium channel openers: therapeutic potential in cardiology and medicine
