Abstract
NNC 55-0396 is a structural analog of mibefradil (Ro 40-5967) that inhibits both T-type and high-voltage-activated (HVA) Ca2+ channels with a higher selectivity for T-type Ca2+ channels. The inhibitory effect of mibefradil on HVA Ca2+ channels can be attributed to a hydrolyzed metabolite of the drug: the methoxy acetate side chain of mibefradil is removed by intracellular enzymes, thus it forms (1...
