Calcium channel inhibitor, verapamil, inhibits the voltage-dependent K+ channels in rabbit coronary smooth muscle cells.

We investigated the effect of the phenylalkylamine Ca(2+) channel inhibitor verapamil on voltage-dependent K(+) (Kv) channels in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells using a whole-cell patch clamp technique. Verapamil reduced the Kv current amplitude in a concentration-dependent manner. The apparent K(d) value for Kv channel inhibition was 0.82 microM. Although verapamil had no effect o...

Nortriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant, inhibits voltage-dependent K+ channels in coronary arterial smooth muscle cells

We demonstrated the effect of nortriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant drug and serotonin reuptake inhibitor, on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels in freshly isolated rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells using a whole-cell patch clamp technique. Nortriptyline inhibited Kv currents in a concentration-dependent manner, with an apparent IC50 value of 2.86±0.52 µM and a Hill coefficient o...

W-7 inhibits voltage-dependent K(+) channels independent of calmodulin activity in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells.

We investigated the effect of W-7, a calmodulin inhibitor, on voltage-dependent K(+) (Kv) channels in freshly isolated coronary arterial smooth muscle cells using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. The amplitude of Kv currents was inhibited by W-7 in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 3.38±0.47μM and a Hill coefficient of 0.84±0.10. W-7 shifted the activation curve to a ...

Escitalopram, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, inhibits voltage-dependent K+ channels in coronary arterial smooth muscle cells

We investigated the inhibitory effect of escitalopram, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels in freshly separated from rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells. The application of escitalopram rapidly inhibited vascular Kv channels. Kv currents were progressively inhibited by an increase in the concentrations of escitalopram, suggesting that ...

Activation of inward rectifier K+ channels by hypoxia in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells.

We examined the effects of acute hypoxia on Ba2+-sensitive inward rectifier K+ (K(IR)) current in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells. The amplitudes of K(IR) current was definitely higher in the cells from small-diameter (<100 microm) coronary arterial smooth muscle cells (SCASMC, -12.8 +/- 1.3 pA/pF at -140 mV) than those in large-diameter coronary arterial smooth muscle cells (>200 ...
