Ranolazine inhibits voltage-gated mechanosensitive sodium channels in human colon circular smooth muscle cells.
Human jejunum smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) express the SCN5A-encoded voltage-gated, mechanosensitive sodium channel NaV1.5. NaV1.5 contributes to small bowel excitability, and NaV1.5 inhibitor ranolazine produces constipation by an unknown mechanism. We aimed to determine the presence and molecular identity of Na(+) current in the human colon smooth muscle a...
متن کاملVoltage-Gated Sodium Channels Modulation by Bothutous Schach Scorpion Venom
Buthotus schach is one of the dangers scorpion in Iran that belong to the Buthidae family. Toxins are existing in venom scorpion, modulate the ion channels by blocking or opening the pore of the channel or by altering the voltage gating and useful as pharmacological tools. In the present study, we investigated the effect of venom and its obtained fractions by gel filtrations on electrophysiolog...
متن کاملVOLTAGE-GATED ION CHANNELS Voltage-Gated Sodium Channels
Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) protect against seizures through interactions with a variety of cellular targets. By affecting the functional activity of these targets, AEDs suppress abnormal hypersynchronous activity in brain circuits, leading to protection against seizures. The actions on these targets can be categorized into four broad groups: (i) modulation of voltage-gated ion channels, includi...
متن کاملAngiotensin II inhibits and alters kinetics of voltage-gated K(+) channels of rat arterial smooth muscle.
The vasoconstrictor angiotensin II (ANG II) inhibits several types of K(+) channels. We examined the inhibitory mechanism of ANG II on voltage-gated K(+) (K(V)) currents (I(K(V))) recorded from isolated rat arterial smooth muscle using patch-clamp techniques. Application of 100 nM ANG II accelerated the activation of I(K(V)) but also caused inactivation. These effects were abolished by the AT(1...
متن کاملVoltage-gated sodium channels in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells.
The goal of this study was to determine whether inward Na+ or Ca2+ currents could be measured in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMEC). CMEC were isolated from rat ventricular muscle and studied during days 1-4 in culture. Differential uptake of fluorescently labeled acetylated low-density lipoproteins (LDL) indicated that the primary culture contained >90% CMEC. Membrane currents were...
