Amiodarone hydrochloride blocks inward IhERG tails in a high K+ external solution ([K+]e) of 94 mM with an IC50 of 117.8 nM[1].
Amiodarone (1 μM) hydrochloride blocks inward IhERG by 68.8%, with concentration response data yielding IC50 and h values of 765.5 nM and 0.9 for T623A hERG[1].
Amiodarone (1 μM) hydrochloride blocks inward IhERG with an IC50 and h values of 979.2 nM and 1.1 for S624A hERG[1].
Amiodarone (1-6 μg/mL) hydrochloride induces human embryonic lung fibroblasts (HELFs) cell proliferation and PD98059 or SB203580 suppresses this effect[2].
Amiodarone (1-6 μg/mL) hydrochloride does not induces HELFs cell apoptosis. Amiodarone (over 15 μg/mL) hydrochloride induces cell apoptosis[2].
Amiodarone (1, 3 and 6 μg/mL;24 hours) hydrochloride induces α-SMA and vimentin mRNA and protein expression accompanied by increased phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK[2].

Animal Model:Ten-week-old male C57BL/6 mice[3]
-
Dosage:30, 90, and 180 mg/kg/day
-
Administration:Treated orally; for 6 weeks
-
Result:Mice treated with 90 and 180 mg/kg/day had decreased body and heart weights, although their heart weight-to-body weight ratios were not significantly different from sham.
6-week treatment induced a decrease in plasma triiodothyronine and an increase in reverse triiodothyronine. This effect reached significance for the 90 and 180 but not for the 30 mg/kg/day dose groups.
Please do not refer to only one article to determine the experimental conditions. It is recommended to determine the optimal experimental conditions (animal strain, age, dosage, frequency and cycle, detection time and indicators, etc.) through preliminary experiments before the formal experiment.
Amiodarone can be used to create pulmonary fibrosis models. Amiodarone has a large distribution volume and extensive tissue distribution, resulting in a terminal half-life in human plasma of up to 25 days. The major active metabolite of Amiodarone is deethylamiodarone. After oral administration, Amiodarone has low and variable bioavailability and exhibits high lipophilicity[2].
Administration: 6.25 mg/kg • i.t. instillation • in 0.3 mL of water • on days 0 and 2
Higher levels of total protein in lung lavage fluid.
Increased LDH activity in bronchoalveolar lavage, and increased lung MPO activity.
Increased total cell counts, alveolar macrophages, neutrophils and eosinophils.
