1-(2,6-Dimethylphenoxy)-2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamino)-propane hydrochloride (DDPH) is a novel antihypertensive agent based on structural characteristics of mexiletine and verapamine. We investigated the effect of DDPH on vasodilatation and neuroprotection in a rat model of cerebral ischemia in vivo, and a rabbit model...

New classification and treatment for myotonic disorders.

INTRODUCTION: Voltage-sensitive optical (VSO) sensors offer a minimally invasive method to study the time course of repolarization of the cardiac action potential (AP). This Comprehensive in vitro Proarrhythmia Assay (CiPA) cross-platform study investigates protocol design and measurement variability of...

Calixmexitil: Calixarene-based Cluster of Mexiletine with Amplified Anti-myotonic Activity as A Novel Use-dependent Sodium Channel Blocker.

Iranian journal of pharmaceutical research : IJPR

Delnavaz Shahr A, Nasuhi Pur F.
PMID: 32641945
Iran J Pharm Res. 2019;18(3):1351-1357. doi: 10.22037/ijpr.2019.1100768.

Mexiletine as the first choice drug in myotonia treatment is a chiral sodium channel blocker clinically used in its racemic form. The phenolic structure of this drug, prompted us to design its novel calix[4]arene-based cluster in a chalice-shaped structure....

Evaluation of the antinociceptive activities of several sodium channel blockers using veratrine test in mice.

Synapse (New York, N.Y.)
