Notes: Isradipine is a selective L-type calcium channel blocker with long-acting antihypertensive activity.{28540} It demonstrates an EC50 value of 1.4 nM for relaxation of depolarization-induced contractions of rabbit aorta and an EC25 value of 0.45 nM for reduction in rate of spontaneously beating guinea pig right atria.{28540} By suppressing calcium influx into the cytoplasm and Cav1.2 expression, isradipine has been shown to attenuate β-amyloid oligomer toxicity in an in vitro model of Alzheimer’s disease.{28541}
