Background

E-4031 dihydrochloride is a methanesulfonanilide class Ⅲ antiarrhythmic agent, capable of prolonging cardiac action potential duration by blocking members of the ether-a-go-go-related gene (ERG) K+ channel family (IC50 = 29 nM). E-4031 dihydrochloride inhibits a variety of ERG isoforms, with KD values being 99, 116 and 193 nM for ERG1, ERG2 and ERG3, respectively. Voltage-gated potassium ERG channels regulate the inwardly rectifying K+ current that repolarizes myocardial cells, gut smooth muscle cells, as well as interstitial cells of Cajal. E-4031 dihydrochloride, as a human ERG (hERG; also known as Kv11.1) K+ channel blocker, has been used to pharmacologically rescue misprocessed hERG mutations in the long QT syndrome type 2.

Protocol

Cell experiment:[3]

Cell lines

Mouse small intestine musculature

Reaction Conditions

1 or 2 μM E-4031

Applications

E-4031 induced a significant depolarization of the musculature at 1 μM, probably due to block of ERG channels in smooth muscle cells as well as interstitial cells of Cajal. Further depolarization was seen with 2 μM E-4031.

Animal experiment:[5]

Animal models

Conscious dogs 3 ~ 5 days after anterior myocardial infarction

Dosage form

Loading dose 100 μg/kg E-4031

Followed by infusion of 10 μg/kg/min E-4031

Applications

E-4031 suppressed the induction of ventricular tachycardia by programmed electrical stimulation. E-4031 protected dogs from the development of ventricular fibrillation within the first hour after the onset of myocardial ischemia in a region remote from the infarcted area.
