Summary

The inhibitory effects of amlodipine besilate (CAS 11470-99-6) on the native Na+ current (INa) and cloned human cardiac Na+ channel a subunit (hH1) were studied by whole cell patch clamp techniques.

Amlodipine produced tonic block of INa in a concentration- and holding potential (HP)- dependent manner with hyperpolarization of Amlodipine produced phasic blockade of INa, which was dependent on HP and pulse duration. Amlodipine produced tonic blockade of hH1 in a concentration-dependent manner with 1 : 1 stoichiometry, and phasic blockade of hH1 which was dependent on the pulse duration. Amlodipine blocked INa in a voltage- and frequency-dependent manner via affinity to the resting as well as inactivated conformations of the α subunit.

Zusammenfassung

Wirkungen von Amlodipin auf native kardiale Na+-Kanäle und geklonte Untereinheiten von kardialen Na+-Kanälen

Die hemmende Wirkungen von Amlodipine-Besilat (CAS 11470-99-6) auf native Na+-Ströme (INa) und geklonte menschliche kardiale Na+-Kanal-Untereinheiten (hH 1) wurden mittels Patch-Clamp-Methode untersucht.

Amlodipin führte dabei zu einer dosis- und Haltepotential (holding potential = HP) abhängigen, tonischen Hemmung der INa und zu einer damit gekoppelten h,-Hyperpolarisation. Amlodipine produzierte außerdem eine dosisabhängige phasische hH1 -Hemmung, sowie eine von der Pulsdauer abhängige phasische hHl-Blockade. Über die Affinität zur Konformation der Untereinheit im Ruhezustand und in der inaktiven Form hemmte Amlodipin die INa sowohl in spannungs- als auch frequenzabhängiger Weise.
