Biochem/physiol Actions

Fluindione is an orally active vitamin K antagonist (VKA) that exerts its in vivo anticoagulant efficacy by inhibiting the vitamin K epoxide reductase activity (VKOR IC50 = 6.6 nM) in a substrate-comeptitive manner.

Warfarin, acenocoumarol, phenprocoumon, and fluindione are commonly prescribed oral anticoagulants for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic disorders. These anticoagulants function by impairing the biosynthesis of active vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors through the inhibition of vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKOR).

Whether oral anticoagulants, vitamin K antagonists (VKAs), and nonvitamin K oral anticoagulant (NOACs) frequently prescribed to atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, do themselves have a pro- or anti-arrhythmic effect have never been addressed. Transmembrane action potentials were recorded in an acute
