Lu AE98134, an activator of voltage-gated sodium channels, acts as a partly selective Nav1.1 channels positive modulator. Lu AE98134 also increases the activity of Nav1.2 and Nav1.5 channels but not of Nav1.4, Nav1.6 and Nav1.7 channels. Lu AE98134 can be used to analyze pathophysiological functions of the Nav1.1 channel in various central nervous system diseases, including cognitive restoring in schizophrenia, et al[1].
KCa2 (small conductance Ca2+-activated potassium) channel negative allosteric modulator (IC50 = 1.1 μM). Increases the EC50 of Ca2+ on KCa2.3 channels by ~3-fold. Prolongs atrial effective refractory period (AERP) in rats. Reduces atrial fibrillation (AF) duration and prolongs atrial refractoriness without affecting ventricular refractory period in an animal AF model.

AP14145 hydrochloride is a potent negative allosteric modulator of K Ca 2 (SK) channels, specifically targeting K Ca 2.2 (SK2) and K Ca 2.3 (SK3) channels with an IC 50 of 1.1 μM. Inhibition of AP14145 hydrochloride is highly influenced by S508 and A533 amino acids present in the channel. This compound effectively extends the atrial effective refractory period (AERP) in rats and exhibits antiarrhythmic properties in a Vernakalant-resistant porcine model of atrial fibrillation (AF).
SK3 Channel-IN-1 (compound 7a) is a powerful and selective modulator of the SK3 channel. It demonstrates significant efficacy in inhibiting breast cancer MDA-MB-435 cell migration while maintaining low cytotoxicity in other cell lines. Furthermore, SK3 Channel-IN-1 exhibits the ability to modulate ion channel activity in cancer cells [1].
