verapamil and Atrophy

verapamil has been researched along with Atrophy in 4 studies

Verapamil: A calcium channel blocker that is a class IV anti-arrhythmia agent.
verapamil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of dexverapamil and (S)-verapamil. An L-type calcium channel blocker of the phenylalkylamine class, it is used (particularly as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmia, and as a preventive medication for migraine.
2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-{[2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl](methyl)amino}-2-(propan-2-yl)pentanenitrile : A tertiary amino compound that is 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine in which the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by a methyl group and a 4-cyano-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methylhexyl group.

Atrophy: Decrease in the size of a cell, tissue, organ, or multiple organs, associated with a variety of pathological conditions such as abnormal cellular changes, ischemia, malnutrition, or hormonal changes.

" To determine whether myofibrillar atrophy results indirectly from loss of mechanical signals or directly from alterations in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), contractile activity was inhibited with verapamil (10 microM) or 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM), and their effects on cell shortening, [Ca2+]i, and myosin heavy chain (MHC) turnover were assessed."3.69Myosin heavy chain turnover in cultured neonatal rat heart cells: effects of [Ca2+]i and contractile activity.

"Different approaches are used aiming to improve these scars, including intralesional corticosteroids, surgery and more recently, laser therapy."2.82Laser therapy for treating hypertrophic and keloid scars. ( da Silva, CA; da Silva, EM; Kuczynski, U; Leszczynski, R; Pinto, ACPN, 2022)
