diazoxide and Orphan Diseases

diazoxide has been researched along with Orphan Diseases in 1 studies

Diazoxide: A benzothiadiazine derivative that is a peripheral vasodilator used for hypertensive emergencies. It lacks diuretic effect, apparently because it lacks a sulfonamide group.
diazoxide : A benzothiadiazine that is the S,S-dioxide of 2H-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine which is substituted at position 3 by a methyl group and at position 7 by chlorine. A peripheral vasodilator, it increases the concentration of glucose in the plasma and inhibits the secretion of insulin by the beta- cells of the pancreas. It is used orally in the management of intractable hypoglycaemia and intravenously in the management of hypertensive emergencies.

Orphan Diseases: Rare diseases that have not been well studied.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Rare forms of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) are caused by mutations in GLUD1 (encoding glutamate dehydrogenase), GCK (encoding glucokinase), HADH (encoding for L-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase), SLC16A1 (encoding the monocarboxylat transporter 1), HNF4A (encoding hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α) or UCP2 (encoding mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2)."2.47Rare forms of congenital hyperinsulinism.
