probucol and Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged

probucol has been researched along with Electrocardiogram QT Prolonged in 11 studies

Probucol: A drug used to lower LDL and HDL cholesterol yet has little effect on serum-triglyceride or VLDL cholesterol. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p993).
probucol : A dithioketal that is propane-2,2-dithiol in which the hydrogens attached to both sulfur atoms are replaced by 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl groups. An anticholesteremic drug with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it is used to treat high levels of cholesterol in blood.

"The QT, QTc, QS2 intervals, pre-ejection period-left ventricular ejection time ratios and serum lipoprotein levels were measured in 8 patients with primary hypercholesterolemia before and after a 3-month therapy with probucol, 1 g/day."3.67The effects of probucol on QT/QS2 relation and systolic time intervals. ( Fenyvesi, T; László, Z; Littmann, L; Romics, L, 1988)
"Probucol is a cholesterol-lowering drug that could reduce hERG current by decreasing plasma membrane hERG protein expression and eventually cause long QT syndrome."1.42Mechanisms underlying probucol-induced hERG-channel deficiency. ( Geng, HZ; Li, BX; Liu, LR; Lv, L; Shi, YQ; Yan, CC; Yan, M; Zhang, X, 2015)
"Probucol, which is a cholesterol-lowering drug and clinically reported to cause QT prolongation, potently inhibited the IKs in a concentration-dependent manner, with a half maximal inhibitory concentration of 149."1.38Chronic probucol treatment decreases the slow component of the delayed-rectifier potassium current in CHO cells transfected with KCNQ1 and KCNE1: a novel mechanism of QT prolongation.
