Description: | XE 991 dihydrochloride, a Kv7 (KCNQ) channels blocker, potently inhibits Kv7.1 (KCNQ1), Kv7.2 (KCNQ2), Kv7.2 + Kv7.3 (KCNQ3) channel, and M-current with IC50s of 0.75 µM, 0.71 µM, 0.6 μM, and 0.98 µM, respectively[1]. |
Target: | IC50: 0.75 µM ( Kv7.1 channel), 0.71 µM (Kv7.2 channel), 0.6 µM (Kv7.2 + Kv7.3 channel), 0.98 μM (M-current)[1] |
In Vitro: | XE 991 dihydrochloride possesses an EC50 of 490 nM for enhancement of [3H]ACh release from rat brain slices, and shows good in vivo potency and duration of action[2]. |
