Description and Uses

(±)-Cromakalim is a prototypical activator of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel, SUR2-K_ir6, that displays anti-ischemic (EC₂₅ = 8.9 μM) and cardioprotective (IC₅₀ = 0.03 μM) effects in rat hearts. (±)-Cromakalim has also been shown to relax bladder smooth muscle in vitro. It has been used to investigate potassium channel biology and as a scaffold to develop increasingly selective K⁺ channel openers with clinical relevance.

Cromakalim has been used:

as a potassium channel agonist to study its response to an acute increase in downstream pressure in rat lymphatic vessels.
as a potassium channel opener to study its effects on the release of transmitters from adrenergic nerves in rat vas deferens.
as a potassium channel activator to study its effects on the release of transmitters from purinergic and cholinergic nerves in the rat detrusor muscle.
