The present invention relates to chemical compounds having inhibitory activity on an intermediate conductance Ca 2+ activated potassium channel (IK Ca), and the use of such compounds for the treatment or alleviation of diseases or conditions relating to immune dysfunction. Moreover, the invention relates to a method of screening a chemical compound for inhibitory activity on an intermediate conductance Ca 2+ activated potassium channel (IK Ca).
The invention provides small molecule drugs that are chemically modified by covalent attachment of a water soluble oligomer. A conjugate of the invention, when administered by any of a number of administration routes, exhibits characteristics that are different from the characteristics of the small molecule drug not attached to the water soluble oligomer.
