Retigabine is a positive allosteric modulator of KCNQ2-5 (KV7.2-7.5) ion channels, with EC50 values being 1.4, 1.6 and 5.2 μM for KCNQ3/5, KCNQ2/3 and KCNQ4, respectively. Retigabine is the first neuronal potassium channel opener used for the treatment of epilepsy. KCNQ2-5 channels, predominantly expressed in neurons, are important determinants of cellular excitability. The occurrence of human genetic mutations in KCNQ2/3 channels are associated with the syndrome of benign familial neonatal convulsions.

Cell experiment:[2] | |
Cell lines |
HEK293 cells transfected with KV2.1 |
Reaction Conditions |
0.1, 0.3, 1 or 3 μM retigabine for 4 h incubation |
Applications |
Retigabine reduced the KV2.1 current density in a concentration-dependent manner. The current density was significantly reduced by approximately 2.5-fold after exposure to 1 and 3 μM retigabine. Thus, KV2.1 was identified as a new molecular target for retigabine, with the potential to further explain retigabine's neuroprotective properties. |
Animal experiment:[3] | |
Animal models |
DBA/2 mice |
Dosage form |
0.5 ~ 20 mg/kg Intraperitoneal administration |
Applications |
Retigabine exhibited an additive effect when administered in combination with classical anticonvulsants, most notably diazepam, phenobarbital, phenytoin as well as valproate. |
