5-(N-Methyl-N-isobutyl)-Amiloride is a compound that functions as a potent and selective inhibitor of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC). It acts by binding to the extracellular domain of the channel, blocking the passage of sodium ions through the channel pore. This inhibition of ENaC activity leads to a reduction in sodium reabsorption in the kidney, which can be useful in studies investigating the regulation of blood pressure, fluid balance, and electrolyte homeostasis. 5-(N-Methyl-N-isobutyl)-Amiloride has been utilized in various physiological processes, such as the control of airway surface liquid volume in the lungs and the regulation of salt taste perception in the tongue.
