Application

Nisoldipine has been used:
  • as a hit-antagonist to study its effects on oxytocin (OT)-induced myometrial Ca2+-mobilization and its potency to dampen uterine myometrial contractions [1]
  • as a calcium channel blocker to study its effects on cell viability in a human hepatic cancer HepG2 and rat renal epithelial NRK52E cell line [2]
  • as a component of the external IK1 recording solution to study the action potential in human pluripotent stem cell−derived cardiomyocytes (hiPS-CMs)[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-type (CaV1.2) calcium channel blocker; dihydropyridine-type calcium channel blocker with selectivity for smooth muscle (CaV1.2b) over cardiac muscle (CaV1.2a). Arterial vasodilator and antihypertensive agent.
