At 0 mV, amiodarone caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of D540K HERG current with IC_<50> of 15±5 μM(n=4). At-150 mV, inhibition by amiodarone was almost abolished (IC_<50> :>10 mM, n=4). These results suggest that binding of positively charged drug is augmented at depolarization and diminished at hyperpolarization if the channel remains open., 国立情報学研究所で電子化したコンテンツを使用している。}, pages = {51--52}, title = {Voltage-Dependent Effects of Amiodarone on D540K HERG Channels}, volume = {47}, year = {2003} }
