Here, we used the neuroprotectant riluzole as a template for the design of KCa2/3 channel activators that are potent enough for in vivo studies. Of a library of 41 benzothiazoles, we identified 2 compounds, anthra[2,1-d]thiazol-2-ylamine (SKA-20) and naphtho[1,2-d]thiazol-2-ylamine (SKA-31), which are 10 to 20 times more potent than riluzole and activate KCa2.1 with EC50 values of 430 nM and 2.9 μM, KCa2.2 with an EC50 value of 1.9 μM, KCa2.3 with EC50 values of 1.2 and 2.9 μM, and KCa3.1 with EC50 values of 115 and 260 nM. |
