Potassium channels opener pinacidil have multiple effects on KCl-elicited contractions of isolated non-pregnant rat uterus

Abstract: The effects of K+ channel opener, pinacidil on contractions provoked by contraction-stimulating KCl were investigated on isolated uterus of non-pregnant rats in oestrus. Pinacidil produced a more potent inhibition of 20 mM KCl-elicited contractions (pD2 = 6.57 μM) than of 40 or 80mMKCl-elicited contractions (pD2=5.11 and 5.19 μM, respectively). Glibenclamide, a selective blocker of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels, antagonized the pinacidil-induced inhibition of contractions eli… Show more
