Myocardial Infarction Research

Myocardial infarction (MI) - more commonly referred to as a heart attack - is an acute event caused by the interruption of blood supply to regions of the heart, leading to myocardial necrosis. Infarction of a substantial area of the myocardium can disrupt normal conductance of the heart, leading to cardiac arrest.In the majority of cases, an MI is immediately preceded by the presence of an occlusive thrombus within a coronary artery, blocking blood flow to the downstream tissue. The most common cause of an occlusive thrombus within a coronary artery is the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque. However, the occlusion of a coronary artery may also result from coronary embolism. This can occur in patients following stent placement, angioplasty, and coronary artery bypass grafting.

Cat.No. Product Name Information/Activity
BCC7235 Paxilline Paxilline is an indole alkaloid mycotoxin from Penicillium paxilli, acts as a potent BK channels inhibitor by an almost exclusively closed-channel block mechanism. Paxilline also inhibits the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) with IC50s between 5 μM and 50 μM for differing isoforms. Paxilline possesses significant anticonvulsant activity.
BCC1122 TRAM-34 TRAM-34 is a highly selective blocker of intermediate-conductance calcium-activated K+ channel (IKCa1) (Kd=20 nM).
BCC8038 TRAM 39 Potent K<sub>Ca</sub>3.1 blocker
BCC7016 UCL 1684 199934-16-2
BCC7446 UCL 2077 UCL 2077 is a selective slow-afterhyperpolarization (sAHP) channel blocker (IC50 = 500 nM in hippocampal neurons in culture), having minimal effects on Ca2+ channels, action potentials, input resistance and the medium after hyperpolarization. UCL 2077 is also a subtype-selective blocker of the epilepsy associated KCNQ channels.
BCC7038 Cromakalim 94470-67-4
BCC6868 Diazoxide Diazoxide (Sch-6783) is an ATP-sensitive potassium channel activator, has the potential for hyperinsulinism treatment.
BCC7039 Levcromakalim Levcromakalim ((-)-Cromakalim) is an ATP-sensitive K+ channel (KATP) activator.
BCC4297 Minoxidil Minoxidil (U10858) is an ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channel opener, a potent oral antihypertensive agent and a peripheral vasodilator that promotes vasodilation also affects hair growth. Minoxidil is also a potent inhibitor of soybean lipoxygenaseare with an IC50 of 20 μM.
BCC7027 P1075 P-1075 is a potent activator of sulfonylurea receptor 2-associated ATP-sensitive potassium channels (SUR2-KIR6), with an EC50 value of 45 nM for SUR2B-KIR6 channel activation. P-1075 also P1075 opens mitochondrial K(ATP) channels and generates reactive oxygen species resulting in cardioprotection of rabbit hearts.
