In this study, deer hair follicles were shown to be an effective in vitro bioassay model, demonstrating that K(ATP) channel modulators directly influence hair follicle growth through specific channel types.

In this study, the authors reported that NNC55-9216, a selective SUR1 KATP channel opener, stimulated hair follicle growth in culture and enhanced the effects of minoxidil, suggesting a new potential treatment for hair loss.

In this in vitro study, minoxidil, diazoxide, and the novel compound NNC 55-0118 increased hair follicle growth, supporting deer follicles as a viable bioassay for ATP-sensitive potassium channel modulators.

This review discusses the therapeutic potential of potassium channel openers for various conditions, but notes that their clinical role is not yet fully established.

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.
