General description

Diazoxide is a nondiuretic benzothiadiazine, which is used for the treatment of hypoglycemia, von Gierke′s disease, acute and malignant hypertension. It acts as a beta cell KATP channel opener. Diazoxide prevents the secretion of insulin.

Application

Diazoxide has been used for diazoxide infusion. It has also been used to prevent depolarization for K+-induced exocytosis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Selective ATP-sensitive K+ channel activator in both vascular smooth muscle and pancreatic β-cells; antihypertensive.

The pharmacological phenotype of ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels is defined by their tissue-specific regulatory subunit, the sulfonylurea receptor (SUR), which associates with the pore-forming channel core, Kir6.2. The potassium channel opener diazoxide has hyperglycemic and hypotensive properties that stem from
