IC50: 1.1 μM (KCa2.2) and 1.1 μM (KCa2.3)[1]
KCa2.2 (SK2) and KCa2.3 (SK3) channels (negative allosteric modulator, IC50 = 1.1 microM each). |
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
The concentration-dependent inhibition of hKCa2.2 and hKCa2.3 channel currents is observed with AP14145 (10 nM-30 μM). 50% of the hKCa1.1 current and 90% of the hKCa2.1 current are inhibited by AP14145 (10 μM), whereas the hKCa3.1 channel is unaffected. On KCa2.3 channels, AP14145 (10 μM) raises the Ca2+ EC50 from 0.36 to 1.2 μM[1]. The hydrochloride AP14145 has an IC50 of 1.3 µM in whole-cell patch clamp on the human SK3 channel. On a panel of cardiac ion channels, AP14145 has no discernible effects on KV1.5 (IKur), KV7.1/KCNE1 (IKs), KV4.3/KChiP2 (Ito), or Kir2.1 (IK1) at 30 µM or on NaV1.5 (15 µM; INa). It suppresses hERG (KV11.1) with an IC50 of 71.8 µM and Kir3.1/Kir3.4 (IKACh) with an IC50 of 9.3 µM. One cannot produce a significant block of CaV1.2 with AP14145 (1–10 µM)[2].
AP14145 (10 microM) inhibits 50% of hKCa1.1 current, 90% of hKCa2.1 current, and has no effect on hKCa3.1. It increases the EC50 of Ca2+ on KCa2.3 channels from 0.36 to 1.2 microM. It also inhibits hERG with an IC50 of 71.8 microM and Kir3.1/Kir3.4 with an IC50 of 9.3 microM. |
| ln Vivo |
In isolated perfused rat hearts, AP14145 (10 μM) prolongs the atrial effective refractory period (AERP)[1]. In male sprague-dawley rats (250-350 g, 1-3 months old), AP14145 (2.5 and 5 mg/kg; bolus injections (iv)) prolongs the atrial effective refractory period[1]. The Cmax of AP14145 (5 mg/kg; bolus injections) in landrace pigs (their 30-35 kg gilts, aged 12–13 weeks) is 8355 nmol/L, and their t½ is 24.3 minutes [2].
In vivo, AP14145 (2.5 and 5 mg/kg; bolus injections (iv)) increases the duration of the atrial effective refractory period (AERP) in rats. It also reduces atrial fibrillation duration and prolongs atrial refractoriness without affecting the ventricular refractory period in an animal AF model. |
| Enzyme Assay |
For the SK channel assay, recombinant human SK2 or SK3 channels are expressed in HEK293 cells. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings are performed, and AP14145 is applied in the bath solution. IC50 values are calculated based on the reduction in current amplitude.
|
| Cell Assay |
HEK293 cells stably expressing hKCa2.2 or hKCa2.3 channels are cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS. Whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiology is performed. AP14145 hydrochloride is applied at varying concentrations (1 nM-30 uM), and the reduction in current is measured. IC50 values are determined from the dose-response curves.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo, AP14145 is formulated in a suitable vehicle (e.g., 5% DMSO in saline) and administered to pigs or rats via intravenous bolus injection. Its effects on atrial refractoriness and fibrillation are assessed by electrophysiological mapping of the heart.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
In pigs, AP14145 (5 mg/kg; bolus injections) has a Cmax of 8355 nmol/L and a half-life of 24.3 minutes. The compound is rapidly cleared, which aligns with its use for acute cardioversion rather than chronic maintenance.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Specific toxicity data is limited. However, its off-target inhibition of hERG (IC50 = 71.8 microM) suggests a potential risk for QT prolongation at high concentrations, though the therapeutic window appears favorable due to the lower IC50 for the primary target.
