Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Definition]
ChEBI: Methyl 2,6-dimethyl-5-nitro-4-[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-1,4-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate is a pentasubstituted dihydropyridine carrying methoxycarbonyl, 2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl and nitro substituents at positions 3, 4 and 5 respectively as well as two methyl substituents at positions 2 and 6. It is a dihydropyridine, a methyl ester, a C-nitro compound and a member of (trifluoromethyl)benzenes. | [General Description]
Synthetic dihydropyridine derivative that acts as an active Ca2+ slow channel agonist in neuroendocrine, muscle, thyroid and other cell types. Prolongs single channel open time without affecting the close time. An L-type Ca2+ channel agonist. Composed of two optical isomers. The (-)-enantiomer has strong vasoconstrictive, positive inotropic, and Ca2+ agonistic properties, whereas the (+)-enantiomer has weakly vasodilating, negative inotropic, and Ca2+ antagonistic properties. The net effect of the racemic mix is that of the negative enantiomer. Promotes β-cell proliferation/regeneration. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
