Discovery of Diphenyl Ether Derivatives as Novel BK Ca Channel Activators: Structure-Activity Relationship, Cryo-EM Complex Structures, and In Vivo Animal Studies. J.Med.Chem., 68:4259-4286, 2025 Cited by PubMed Abstract: The BK channel, a large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channel, plays a crucial role in maintaining the homeostasis of the micturition cycle and airway-related functions. In this study, we optimized a novel BK channel activator, , with a diphenyl ether structure identified from library screening. This led to the discovery of potent activators, (EC = 0.12 μM, cell-based assay) and , an orally bioavailable derivative. Compound demonstrated potent efficacy in a spontaneous hypertensive rat (SHR) of urinary incontinence model, while compound showed dose-dependent cough suppression efficacy with an ED of 11.8 mg/kg in a citric acid-induced cough model. Furthermore, we reported the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the BK channel in complex with and at resolutions of 2.8 and 3.4 Å. Based on structural analyses, we determined the binding sites and key interaction residues of , which were validated via mutation studies.
