Cromakalim relaxes various blood vessels, while minoxidil sulphate is more selective; they likely act on different potassium channels.
research Inhibitory effects of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers cromakalim, pinacidil and minoxidil on the carbachol–response curve in porcine detrusor muscle
This study found that cromakalim and pinacidil significantly inhibited porcine detrusor muscle contractions, suggesting these ATP-sensitive potassium channel openers may have potential in treating certain bladder diseases.

research Influence of the alkylsulfonylamino substituent located at the 6-position of 2,2-dimethylchromans structurally related to cromakalim: From potassium channel openers to calcium entry blockers?
This study found that several newly synthesized dihydrobenzopyran compounds inhibited insulin secretion and had vasorelaxant activity, with some more potent than reference KATP channel activators, though compound 21 functioned as a Ca2+ entry blocker.

Dr. Muñoz's discovery suggests that targeting potassium channels in fibroblasts could reactivate hair growth, offering new treatment possibilities for alopecia. Potential strategies include using minoxidil, diazoxide, and other potassium channel openers, as well as bioelectric devices and direct growth factor applications.
