E-4031 is a benzenesulfonamide antiarrhythmic agent; blocks the ATP-sensitive potassium channel. IC50 value: Target: K+ channel blocker in vitro: Dofetilide and E-4031 induced EADs or TdP in all assays (50-83%), and the induction correlated with a significant increase in beat-to-beat variability of repolarization [1]. E-4031 (0.1 mumol/L) significantly prolonged cycle length and action potential duration, depolarized maximum diastolic potential, and reduced both the upstroke velocity of the action potential and the diastolic depolarization rate [2]. in vivo: E-4031 in doses of 0.01 and 0.1 mg/kg that can provide the plasma concentrations effectively to inhibit IKrin vitro significantly delayed the repolarization beyond the initiation of diastole, resulting in the inversion of electro-mechanical coupling, which provides an ideal proarrhythmic substrate, while the durations of left ventricular systole and diastole remained the same [3]. Bepridil and E-4031 prolonged QT interval and ARI in all LV layers, though the magnitude of prolongation was greatest in Mid, increasing the transmural ARI dispersion, particularly during bradycardia [4].
