HIDE SMILES / InChI
Pranolium (UM-272) is propranolol derivative. It can reduce the extent of myocardial injury sustained during severe ischemia. UM-272 lacks significant beta-adrenergic blocking activity but retains the negative chronotropic, negative inotropic and antiarrhythmic effects common to both d- and l-propranolol. The protective effects of UM-272 during myocardial ischemia cannot be due to metabolic effects of the beta-adrenergic blockade but may be due to effects on oxygen consumption or to effects on myocardial membrane properties that are related to its antiarrhythmic and myocardial depressant activity. The ability of UM-272 to enhance blood flow to subendocardial myocardium may also play a role in its beneficial effects during ischemia. UM-272 may protect the ischemic heart through direct effects on myocardial Ca++ regulating mechanisms. UM-272 has kinetically similar use-dependent inhibitory action of the fast sodium channels of cardiac muscles as other Class Ia antiarrhythmic drugs like quinidine or procainamide. Pranolium was investigated as an antiarrhythmic agent.
