NS 3623

Uses

NS 3623 selectively activates the human ether-a-go-go related gene (hERG) potassium channel which mediates the repolarizing cardiac current IKr. NS 3623 an IKr agonist, cause QT interval prolongation, increasing the risk of dangerous ventricular fibrillations, eventually leading to sudden cardiac death.

Biological Activity

NS3623 is a potent and selective activator of KV11.1 (hERG) and KV4.3 channels. It activates the IKr and Ito currents and exhibits antiarrhythmic activity. NS3623 may also act as a partial blocker of KV11.1 channels.
