K+ channel[1]
Levcromakalim ((-)-Cromakalim) inhibits spontaneous contractions completely in a glibenclamide-sensitive manner. LevCromakalim (5 μM) inhibits spontaneous contractions, which are recovered by glibenclamide. Levcromakalim (1, 5 and 10 μM) inhibits phasic contractions to 34±21.1%, 20.1±20.0% and 0% of the control (n=5, respectively; P<0.05). Glibenclamide reverses the inhibition of spontaneous isometric contractions caused by LevCromakalim (5 μM) to 84±1.5% of the control (n=5; P<0.05). Levcromakalim (20 and 100 μM) also inhibits oxytocin (OXT) (10 nM)-induced phasic contractions to 34±21.4% and 14±12.6% of the control (n=6 and 4, respectively; P<0.05). Glibenclamide reverses the inhibition of spontaneous isometric contractions by LevCromakalim (100 μM) to 79±3.5% of the control (n=4; P<0.05). Tonic contraction by OXT is also suppressed by Cromakalim in a glibenclamide-sensitive manner[2].The function of the KATP channels is examined with the specific channel opener LevCromakalim (Cromakalim). LevCromakalim induces dose-dependent relaxation in both the young and old mesenteric artery (MAs); and there is no difference in relaxation with age. However, the relaxation is markedly reduced in response to the high-salt (HS) diet in the old MAs (P<0.05)[3].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (8.73 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Please ensure that the stock solution in the first step is dissolved to a clear state, and add co-solvents in sequence. You can use ultrasonic heating (ultrasonic cleaner, recommended frequency 20-40 kHz), vortexing, etc. to assist dissolution.
Protokoll
Levcromakalim (Cromakalim) is dissolved in 10% DMSO and Krebs solution[3].
The endothelium-dependent relaxation is tested by performing concentration-response experiments with acetylcholine (ACh; 10 nM-10 μM). Typically, MAs are exposed to each dose of ACh for at least 6 minutes and maximal responses are determined. Function of the KATP channels are examined with 10 µM of glibenclamide (a selective KATP channel inhibitor) and Levcromakalim (Cromakalim) (10 nM to 100 μM), a KATP channel opener. The addition of glibenclamide to the arterial bath 10 minutes prior to ACh does not alter passive maximum internal diameters of any MAs in our groups.The vessel diameter changes are presented as percentages (%) of dilation of the preconstricted vessels, calculated[3].
