How Danegaptide works
Danegaptide, a small modified dipeptide, is a selective second generation gap junction modifier with oral bioavailability. Danegaptide prevents postoperative atrial fibrillation (AF) and chronic AF in large animal models. In a canine model of acute sterile pericarditis, Danegaptide significantly reduced AF duration and overall AF burden. Danegaptide has a similar mechanism of action to its parent compound rotigaptide. Rotigaptide is a synthetic antiarrhythmic peptide (AAP) analogue which has been tested in vitro which shows prevention of prevents metabolic stress-induced atrial conduction velocity (CV) and rapidly reverts established atrial CV slowing. Rogitapeptide enhances gap junction conductance and coupling, increasing the amount of small molecules such as ions, metabolites and secondary messengers passing from one cell to another.
