Diazoxide
Chemical Name: 7-Chloro-3-methyl-2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine 1,1-dioxide
Purity: ≥98%
Biological Activity
Diazoxide is an antihypertensive, activates ATP-dependent K+ channels (Kir6). Induces activation of PKCε, an intermediate in the opening of mitoKATP channels, results in cardioprotection against hypoxia-induced death. Blocks desensitization of AMPA receptors.Technical Data
