  • TREATMENT METHODS USING TRIARYL METHANE COMPOUNDS
    Publication number: 20090036538
    Abstract: The use of novel inhibitors of potassium flux is disclosed for the treatment of inflammatory processes, such as multiple sclerosis, insulin-dependent (type I) diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, peripheral neuritis and pulmonary hypertension. The compounds are also of use in treating and preventing stroke. These inhibitors have a high specificity for the IK1 channel and greater stability relative to non-fluorine substituted homologues.
