Biochem/physiol Actions

NN414 is a potent Kir6.2/SUR1 selective K-ATP channel opener. Activation of the pancreatic Kir6.2/SUR KATP channels inhibits insulin release to induce beta cell rest, reducing the workload of the beta cell which is thought may prove beneficial for patients with type 2 diabetes. A recent study found that NN414 also triggered burst-like discharges in substantia nigra dopamine neurons. These K-ATP channel enabled burst-like discharges are associated with novelty-dependent exploratory behavior and may also have relevance to Parkinson′s disease.
