Background:

Dantrolene (F368), a muscle relaxant, non-competitively inhibits human erythrocyte glutathione reductase. Ki and IC50 values are 111.6 μM and 52.3 μM, respectively. Dantrolene is a ryanodine receptor antagonist and Ca2+ signaling stabilizer. Dantrolene can be used for the research of muscle spasticity, malignant hyperthermia, Huntington's disease and other neuroleptic malignant syndrome[1][2][3][4][5].

Dantrolene interferes with calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum and thus to inhibit excitation--contraction coupling[1]. Dantrolene acts directly on the RYR1 to reduce the extent of channel activation by calmodulin (CaM) and thereby decreases the Ca2+ sensitivity of channel activation[2].Dantrolene inhibits abnormal Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum[3]. Dantrolene depresses excitation-contraction coupling in muscle fibers by inhibiting calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum[3].Dantrolene also shows calcium channel blocker effect in the smooth muscle membrane as well as antioxidative and cytoprotective properties[3]. Dantrolene affects the membrane calcium channel of smooth muscle cells and inhibits calcium influx[3].Dantrolene is a skeletal muscle-specific muscle relaxant that works on the cardiac muscle. Dantrolene (0.3 μM) binds to domain 601-620 of RyR2 and corrects defective inter-domain interaction within RyR2 in failing hearts. This in turn inhibits spontaneous Ca2++ leak/Ca2+ sparks, and improves cardiomyocyte function in failing hearts[4].

Dantrolene is neuroprotective in Huntington's disease transgenic mouse model[5].Feeding dantrolene (5 mg/kg) twice a week to YAC128 mice between 2 months and 11.5 months of age resulted in significantly improved performance in the beam-walking and gait-walking assays[5].
