Application

Ranolazine dihydrochloride has been used:
  • as a low Torsades-de-pointes (TdP) risk drug to study its effects on QTc prolongation, electrocardiographic (PR and QRS) intervals in dog cardiovascular model
  • as a partial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) inhibitor to study its effects on glioblastoma cells
  • as a late sodium(Na+)-current (INaL) inhibitor to study its effects on atrial tachycardia in rabbit heart

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ranolazine is a derivative of anti-ischemic piperazine and acts as sodium (Na+)-current inhibitor. It has the potential to treat diastolic heart failure and helps in ameliorating myocardial diastolic function.
pFOX (partial fatty acid oxidation) inhibitor, a new class of anti-anginal drugs, which inhibit fatty acid beta-oxidation and activates pyruvate dehydrogenase, thereby diverting the heart′s energy source from lipids to glucose, which requires less oxygen and helps maintain myocardiac function at times of ischemia
