We examined the effects of an aconitine-like compound, TJN-505 (1alpha-16beta-dimethoxy-20-ethyl-14alpha-(4-methox ybenzoyloxy)-aconitan-8,13-diol hydrochloride), on canine arrhythmias provoked by digitalis, two-stage coronary ligation, adrenaline, programmed electrical stimulation, or aconitine. TJN-505 (2-2.5 mg/kg i.v.) suppressed digitalis-, two-stage coronary ligation- and adrenaline-induced ventricular arrhythmias. The antiarrhythmic plasma concentrations (IC50) of TJN-505 for these arrhythmia models were 1.26, 0.94 and 1.31 microg/ml, respectively. TJN-505 (2 mg/kg i.v. followed by the infusion of 0.1 mg/kg per min) prolonged PR, QRS, QTc and JTc intervals and the ventricular effective refractory period and reduced the incidence of programmed electrical stimulation-induced arrhythmias in dogs with 7-day-old myocardial infarction (P < 0.05). TJN-505 (2 mg/kg i.v.) also suppressed the aconitine-induced atrial arrhythmias. In conclusion, TJN-505 suppressed various canine ventricular and atrial arrhythmias and seems to act as a blocker of multiple channels.
