  19. Conclusioni • La ranolazina sembra caratterizzata da un importante effetto antiaritmico … • … dovuto non solo all’interazione con la corrente tardiva del sodio, ma al blocco di più canali cellulari • Questo meccanismo d’azione rende la molecola molto vicina all’amiodarone in termini di efficacia • Il miocardio atriale sembrerebbe più sensibile alle azioni della ranolazina, anche se alcuni dati pre-clinici e clinici sembrano confermare l’efficacia del farmaco anche nei confronti delle aritmie ventricolari • L’utilizzo della ranolazina in associazione con amiodarone e dronedarone potrebbe portare ad una vera e propria sinergia clinica, permettendo la riduzione delle dosi degli anti-aritmici e diminuendo l’incidenza di eventi avversi

  21. The major conclusion of this study is that the late Na current blocking drug ranolazine demonstrates efficacy against both pacing-induced re-entrant VF and spontaneous oxidative multifocal VF • The suppression of multifocal VF is associated with a progressive reduction in the number of foci • This finding supports the hypothesis that multifocal VF requires the constant generation of new interacting foci to maintain themselves such that when the rate of production of new foci falls below a critical level, VF terminates • This is analogous to re-entrant VF, in which a critical mass is required to ensure that the rate of formation of new wavelets exceeds the rate of wavelet extinction • Although H2O2 is an artificial means of inducing oxidative stress, there are many known triggers … stress in the heart, such as aging, heart failure, and ischemia–reperfusion, … all conditions associated with increased risk of VF Morita N, 2011

  22. Sossalla S, 2010 • The results show that permanent AF is associated with altered expression and function of Na+ channels • Late INa was significantly greater as well as Nav1.1 expression • Ranolazine reduced peak and late INa in SR, but it preferentially blocked late over peak INa in AF • Ranolazine restores the physiological relationship between peak and late INa and consequently suppresses known pro-arrhythmogenic mechanisms in vitro • Ranolazine reduced Ca2+- and Iso-induced PACs and caused a concentration-dependent and reversible negative inotropic effect associated with an improved diastolic tension

  23. Amiodarone action includes inhibition of a number of cardiac ionic currents (IKr, IKs, INa, late INa, Ito, ICa-L, ICa-T, IK1, IK(ACh), IK(ATP)) as well as a- and b-adrenoceptor– blocking activity • Ranolazine has been shown to have a pharmacological profile similar to that of chronic amiodarone … (and) causes inhibition of INa, IKr, and ICa • Both agents have rapid unbinding kinetics from the Na+ channel • Unlike amiodarone, which is an inactivated-state blocker of cardiac Na+ channels, ranolazine is an activated-state blocker • The actions of amiodarone & ranolazine to produce potent block of the Na+ channels in the atria are similar to that of class IC antiarrhythmic agents. However, the effects of the combination are largely restricted to the atrial myocardium • The potentiation by ranolazine of the anti-AF effects amiodarone may permit the use of a lower dose of amiodarone Sicouri S, Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol 2010
