Biological Activity
Description
Diazoxide is a well-known small molecule that activates KATP channels in the smooth muscle of blood vessels and pancreatic beta-cells by increasing membrane permeability to potassium ions.
Targets
KATP channels
In vitro
Diazoxide inhibits microglial inflammatory activity. This compound treatment partially inhibits the inflammatory pattern induced by LPS/IFN-γ in microglial cells, inducing a decrease in NO production that could be because of the decreased expression of iNOS detected. It has no effect on microglial phagocytosis.
In Vivo
Diazoxide is beneficial on the improvement in cognitive tasks, reduction of anxiety, decrease in the accumulation of amyloid-beta oligomers and hyperphosphorylation of tau proteins. This compound may also exerts neuroprotective effects independently of K+ channel activation by decreasing neuronal excitability and activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors or by increasing currents trough α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors. This chemical-treated animals show a decrease in disease severity a few days after the first clinical signs are observed, corresponding to the acute inflammatory phase of the disease. Daily oral administration of this compound in EAE mice during the effector phase of the disease reduces the severity of the clinical signs without any apparent adverse effect. It decreases demyelination and axonal loss, reduces tissue damage, inhibits microglial/macrophage and astrocytic activation and preserves neuron integrity. No effects are observed on the number of B and T lymphocytes infiltrating the spinal cord.
The phagocytic ability of microglia is determined by the uptake of 2-μm red fluorescent microspheres by BV-2 cells. Cells are treated with diazoxide 100 μM and activated with LPS/IFN-γ and then incubated with microspheres at a concentration of 0.01% for 30 min in the dark at 37°C and 5% CO2. Cells are rinsed twice in PBS solution, pelleted at 1,000 g for 5 min and resuspended in 300 μL PBS. Cells are kept on ice and analyzed by flow cytometry.
