Diltiazem hydrochloride
Based on 11 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Diltiazem hydrochloride (CRD-401) is a calcium antagonist and an L-type calcium channel inhibitor. Diltiazem hydrochloride inhibits Ca2+ mobilization/influx, norepinephrine-induced contraction, and depolarization. Diltiazem hydrochloride produces coronary vasodilation and renal vasodilation; it inhibits sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron and increases urine flow, sodium and potassium excretion, Inulin (HY-N7075) and PAH clearance, and free water clearance. Diltiazem hydrochloride is used in research on cardiovascular diseases, kidney diseases, and inflammation.

In Vitro
Diltiazem hydrochloride reduces depolarization-induced contraction in voltage-clamped rabbit main pulmonary artery[3].
Diltiazem hydrochloride reduces norepinephrine-induced contraction of rabbit main pulmonary artery and inhibits norepinephrine-induced depolarization[3].
Diltiazem hydrochloride increases the K+-induced mechanical threshold in rabbit main pulmonary arteries and reduces K+-induced contraction[3].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
In Vivo
Diltiazem hydrochloride (10 μg/kg/min; continuous intrarenal arterial infusion) increases sodium excretion even when renal blood flow is maintained constant by aortic clamping; and it reduces sodium reabsorption in the distal nephron[2].
