Whole-cell recordings were made from dissociated bullfrog sympathetic neurons to examine the actions of quinine (1-100 microM) on the steady-state activation and inactivation curves of a delayed rectifier-type potassium current (I(K)). Quinine (EC50 approximately 8 microM) caused a hyperpolarizing shift (approximately 31 mV with 30 microM) in the inactivation curve of I(K) without significantly affecting its activation curve. Quinine (20 microM) was without effects on the voltage-dependence of a rapidly-inactivating A-type potassium current (I(A)). It is concluded that quinine can selectively modulate the voltage-dependence of I(K) in amphibian autonomic neurons.
通过对分离的牛蛙交感神经元进行全细胞记录,以研究奎宁(1 - 100微摩尔)对延迟整流型钾电流(I(K))的稳态激活和失活曲线的作用。奎宁(半数有效浓度约为8微摩尔)使I(K)的失活曲线发生超极化偏移(30微摩尔时约为31毫伏),而对其激活曲线无显著影响。奎宁(20微摩尔)对快速失活的A型钾电流(I(A))的电压依赖性无影响。结论是奎宁可选择性调节两栖类自主神经元中I(K)的电压依赖性。
