NS-1619 is a compound that selectively activates large conductance Ca2+ -activated K+ (BK) channels. BK channels are found in various tissues and play important roles in regulating smooth muscle tone, neuronal excitability, and neurotransmitter release. NS-1619 binds to a specific site on the BK channel, leading to channel opening and subsequent hyperpolarization of the cell membrane.
