Human Endogenous Metabolite

In Vitro Dimethindene (5-500 μM; follicle-enclosed Xenopus oocytes) decreases Cromakalim cromakalim-induced K+ currents with an IC50 value of 29.5 μM[2].
In Vivo Dimethindene (0.25 mg; i.p.; once; C57BL/6 mice with skin WH) impaires cutaneous wound healing (WH) and delays skin wound closure[1]. Animal Model: C57BL/6 mice with skin WH[1] Dosage: 0.25 mg Administration: intraperitoneal injection; once Result: Delayed skin wound closure as compared to vehicle treated mice.
