Scientific background
VU0529331 is an activator of the homomeric and of non-GIRK1-containing GIRK channels. The activity of the compound is much stronger on non-GIRK1/X channels. VU0529331 does not change the potassium selectivity or rectification of GIRK channels1. VU0529331 activates GIRK2 and GIRK4 homomeric channels expressed in HEK293 cells and demonstrates EC50 values of 5.1 and 22.3 µM respectively1.The GIRK family, also known as the Kir3 family, is part of the larger inwardly rectifying potassium channel (Kir) family. GIRK channels play an important role in the regulation of cellular excitability. GIRK channels are heterotetrameric or homotetrameric combinations of the GIRK1−GIRK4 subunits. GIRK channels are associated with a variety of neurological disorders and alcohol and drug addiction1,2.
