Abstract:
:T-type Ca(2+) currents were recorded in 2 mM Ca(2+) from HEK293 cells stably expressing the low voltage-activated Ca(2+) channel sub-unit alpha(1I). These currents were inhibited by the known Ca(2+) channel antagonist mibefradil with an IC(50) close to 1 microM. SB-209712 (1,6,bis¿1-[4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperidinyl]¿hexane), a compound originally developed as a high voltage-activated Ca(2+) channel blocker, proved to be a more potent T-type channel antagonist, exhibiting an IC(50) in the region of 500 nM. The antagonism produced by SB-209712 was reversed following drug removal and the observed antagonism exhibited little or no voltage-dependence with respect to either holding or test potential. These data indicate that SB-209712 is amongst the most potent known non-peptide T-type channel antagonists and thus may have some use in understanding the role of these channels in cellular function.
