Benidipine is an orally triple L-, T-, and N-type calcium channel blocker for the treatment of hypertension and angina pectoris synthesized and developed by Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Co., Ltd. Benidipine, approved in Japan in November 1991, has become one of the three best selling CCBs and is highly useful as a potent, long-lasting antihypertensive and antianginal agent.

The oocytes expressing select Ca channels were cultured for 2 to 4 days and then subjected to electrophysiological measurement. The oocytes were placed in a small chamber perfused with extracellular solution , and Ba2+ currents through expressed channels were measured by the two-microelectrode voltageclamp method. The experimental chamber was 0.5 ml in volume, and it was perfused continuously with the extracellular solution. Typically, oocytes were clamped at a holding potential of 2100, 280, or 260 mV and depolarized to 110 mV for 200 ms every 15 s. Microelectrodes were filled with 3 M KCl, and those showing a resistance of 0.5 to 1.2 VM were used. Benidine was evaluated in concentration range of 0.1 - 100 uM, and demonstrated blocking effect with IC50 of 0.7 uM.
