Biochem/physiol Actions

Anti-arrhythmic that exerts anti-fibrillatory efficacy via potential- & rate-dependent Nav1.5 (SCN5A) as well as atrial-selective Kv1.5 (KCNA5) blockade in vivo.
Vernakalant is a multiple ion channel blocker that exerts in vivo anti-fibrillatory (anti-arrhythmic) efficacy (ED50 = 1.5 μmol/kg/min iv. against ischemia-induced arrhythmias in rats) via atrial-selective Kv1.5 blockage (hKv1.5/rKv4.2/rKv4.3 IC50 = 13/38/30 μM at 1Hz & -80 to 60 mV in 200 (Kv1.5) or 400 (Kv4) msec) as well as potential- and rate-dependent Nav1.5 blockade (inward Na current INa IC50 = 9 μM/20 Hz & -80 mV, 31 μM/1Hz & -60 mV, 107 μM/1Hz & -120 mV using HEK hNav1.5 cells).

Electrical remodeling plays a pivotal role in maintaining the reentry during atrial fibrillation. In this study, we assessed influence of electrical remodeling on pharmacological manipulation of the atrial refractoriness in rabbits. We used an atrial electrical remodeling model of the

Current guidelines recommend vernakalant for pharmacologic cardioversion of recent-onset atrial fibrillation. However, this drug is not established as chronic therapy. In total, 15 rabbit hearts were Langendorff-perfused. A burst pacing protocol-induced atrial fibrillation in 7 of 15 hearts at baseline

Vernakalant inhibits several potassium currents and causes a rate- and voltage-dependent inhibition of the sodium current. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antiarrhythmic mechanism of vernakalant in normal and electrically remodeled atria. Fourteen goats were instrumented with

Besides the inhibition of the sodium inward current, vernakalant also inhibits the ultra rapid rectifier (IKur) and transient outward current (Ito). Inhibition of these currents increases contractility in canine atrial myocytes and goat atria. We investigated the effect of vernakalant
