Restricting excessive cardiac action potential and QT prolongation: a vital role for IKs in human ventricular muscle [PDF]
, 2005 Background - Although pharmacological block of the slow, delayed rectifier potassium current (I-Ks) by chromanol 293B, L-735,821, or HMR-1556 produces little effect on action potential duration (APD) in isolated rabbit and dog ventricular myocytes, the ...

Theoretical basis and search for new methods of cardiac arrhythmias' pathogenetic therapy
Российский кардиологический журнал, 2005 Efficacy of cardiac arrhythmias (CA) pharmacotherapy does not exceed 70%; incidence of adverse effects, causing treatment discontinuation, is as high as 10-30%. The need for CA pharmacotherapy improvement is obvious.

Facilitation of I Kr current by some hERG channel blockers suppresses early afterdepolarizations. [PDF]
, 2019 Drug-induced block of the cardiac rapid delayed rectifying potassium current (I Kr), carried by the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel, is the most common cause of acquired long QT syndrome.

STATE OF THE ART PHARMACOLOGICAL THERAPY FOR ATRIAL FIBRILLATION
Российский кардиологический журнал, 2017 Pharmacological therapy remains the primary approach to atrial fibrillation (AF). Management of all AF patients includes the decision on rate or rhythm control. The latter means antiarrhythmic drugs application that are being selected primarily by safety
