Potassium channel activator; analog of nicorandil; nitrate-free coronary vasodilator
SG-209, a derivative of nicorandil, opens up potassium channels and leads to vasodilation. It dilates tracheal smooth muscle and increases the blood flow to the trachea in dogs.3

Modulation of cytokine release may be of interest in modulating inflammatory diseases. This study determined whether nicorandil, a potassium channel opener, and nitric oxide (NO) donor could inhibit the release of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) from lymphocytes. Nicorandil significantly

The mechanism of the vasodilating action of 2-nicotinamidoethyl acetate (SG-209), a derivative of nicorandil, was examined in the isolated rabbit aorta. Comparison was made using 2-nicotinamidoethyl alcohol (SG-86) and 2-nicotinamidoethyl nitrate (nicorandil; SG-75) to reveal any structure-activity relationships. SG-209 and

To determine the effect of a nicorandil congener, SG-209 on the myometrium. Isolated strips of myometrium, from nine women who underwent hysterectomy, were made to contract with 55 mM KCl before and after incubation with three concentrations of SG-209 (1.5
Nicorandil, a compound containing a nitrate moiety, can act as a K+ channel opener. Previously we reported stimulatory effects of an intraarterial injection of nicorandil on pancreatic exocrine secretion in the isolated, blood-perfused pancreas under a constant perfusion pressure. To

In anesthetized dogs, the tracheal vascular bed in situ was perfused with arterial blood through the cannulated cranial thyroid arteries. The effects of nicorandil, a coronary vasodilator, and its congeners (SG-212, GS-209 and SG-103; in which the nitroxy group of
