Abstract
This review discusses structural aspects of second-generation KATP channel openers (KCOs), which exhibit improved tissue-selectivity. Their therapeutic profile is debated with main focus on cardiac ischemia, asthma, and urinary incontinence.
Keywords: katp channel openers (kcos), benzopyrans, cyclobutenediones, dihydropyridine related structures, tertiary carbinols, structure-activity relationships, therapeutic potential, myocardial ischemia, asthma, urinary incontinence
