1. Investigations were made into the effects of BRL 38227, a potassium channel activator, on ATP-sensitive potassium channels (K(ATP)(+)channels) in single fibres dissociated from the flexor digitorum brevis muscle of C57BL/6J mice.2. In cell-attached patches BRL 38227 (100 mu M) caused activation of a glibenclamide-sensitive potassium current. Linear slope conductance of the inward current, partial rectification of the outward current and glibenclamide sensitivity indicate that K-ATP(+) channels are the site of action of BRL 38227.3. In the absence of ATP at the cytoplasmic side of excised inside-out patches, BRL 38227 caused direct and magnesium-dependent activation of K-ATP(+) channels. The degree of activation diminished with successive applications of BRL 38227.4. BRL 38227 also caused activation of K-ATP(+) channels in the presence of low(
