Bioactivity | Ned-K is a nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) antagonist. Ned-K is effective at dampening simulated ischaemia and reperfusion (sIR)-induced Ca2+ oscillations in cardiomyocytes[1]. |
Invitro | Ned-K suppresses Ca2+ oscillations and dramatically protects cardiomyocytes from cell death in vitro after ischaemia and reoxygenation, preventing opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore. Ned-K (10 µM) almost completely eliminates [Ca2+]c oscillations, and Ned-K (0.1 µM) is effective at suppressing [Ca2+]c levels[1]. Cell Viability Assay[1] Cell Line: |
In Vivo | Injection of Ned-K causes a significant reduction in infarct size in mice. Ned-K (administered i.v. to mice 5 min before reperfusion) significantly decreases myocardial infarct size relative to area at risk[1]. |
