Description: Nicorandil-d4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of nicorandil by GC- or LC-MS. Nicorandil is an activator of sulfonylurea receptor 2B (SUR2B) linked to ATP-sensitive potassium channel Kir6.2 (EC50 = ~10 µM) and a nitric oxide (NO) donor. It is selective for SUR2B/Kir6.2 over the SUR2A/Kir6.2 channel (EC50 = >500 µM). Nicorandil activates soluble guanylate cyclase in a cell-free assay and relaxes partially depolarized isolated bovine coronary artery strips (EC50 = 4.4 µM). It decreases mean blood pressure, coronary resistance, and heart rate, as well as increases coronary sinus outflow, in dogs when administered intravenously at a dose of 1 mg/kg. Nicorandil increases survival and decreases infarct size in a rabbit model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by left coronary artery occlusion. Formulations containing nicorandil have been used in the treatment of angina pectoris.

Biological target: Nicorandil-d4 (SG-75-d4) is the deuterium labeled Nicorandil. Nicorandil (SG-75) is a potent potassium channel activator.
In vitro activity: Nicorandil (100 micromol/liter) increased flavoprotein oxidation but not membrane current; a 10-fold higher concentration recruits both mitoK(ATP) and surfaceK(ATP) channels. Nicorandil blunted the rate of cell death in a pelleting model of ischemia; this cardioprotective effect was prevented by the mitoK(ATP) channel blocker 5-hydroxydecanoate but was unaffected by the surfaceK(ATP) channel blocker HMR1098. Reference: J Am Coll Cardiol. 2000 Feb;35(2):514-8. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10676702/
In vivo activity: This study’s aim was to assess whether pharmacologic activation of the K(ATP) channel by nicorandil contributes to endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) levels. A total of 21 7-week old male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. Nicorandil caused tachycardia without a change in blood pressure, whereas glibenclamide had no effect on the nicorandil-induced change in heart rate or on blood pressure. RT-PCR revealed that nicorandil increased the eNOS and SUR2 mRNA levels by 2.2- and 2.0-fold, respectively, (p < 0.01 versus control), and that these increases were completely inhibited by glibenclamide.
