From bench to bedside: Tracing the payback forwards from basic or early clinical research – A preliminary exercise and proposals for a future study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Chapter 1 : Introduction • The members of the research team from HERG and the Wellcome Trust have conducted previous studies showing that it is possible both to assess the payback from applied health research, and to use bibliometrics

The Potential Role of Verapamil Against Fluconazole‐Induced Torsade de Pointes: A Critical Review

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Fluconazole (FZL) is a broad‐spectrum antifungal drug associated with certain serious adverse effects such as polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia due to QT prolongation. Torsade de Pointes (TdP) is a unique type of polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia due to QT prolongation.

Electrophysiological characterization of a small molecule activator on human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2019
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) encodes the K+ channel that carries the rapid component of the delayed rectifier current in the human heart. Reduction of hERG activity induced by gene mutations or pharmacological inhibition is responsible for

Isocitrate Dehydrogenase Mutations in Cancer: From Bench to Bedside Applications

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase affects multiple cancer types. Alterations in IDH1 and IDH2 result in abnormal enzyme activity, leading to the overproduction of D‐2‐hydroxyglutarate (D‐2HG). This metabolite disrupts cellular metabolism and epigenetic regulation, driving cancer initiation, progression, and metastasis.

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 10, Page 2197-2218, May 2026.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Sequence and function of the two P domain potassium channels: implications of an emerging superfamily. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A new superfamily of K+ channels has emerged in the past 2 years. Notable for possessing two pore-forming P domains in each subunit, members of the superfamily have been recognized through phylogeny from micro-organisms to humans. Four subfamilies of two

Do AGN triggering mechanisms vary with radio power? I.Optical morphologies of radio-intermediate HERGs

open access: yes, 2019
Radio AGNs with intermediate radio powers are capable of driving multi-phase outflows in galaxy bulges, and are also more common than their high-radio-power counterparts.

A Receptor-Independent Effect of Estrone Sulfate on the hERG Channel

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
We recently reported that physiological concentrations of 17β-estradiol partially down-regulate cardiac rapidly-activating delayed rectifier K+ currents (hERG currents) independently of estrogen-receptor signaling.

Molecular Determinants of hERG Channel Block by Terfenadine and Cisapride

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2008
Block of cardiac hERG K+ channels by the antihistamine terfenadine and the prokinetic agent cisapride is associated with prolonged ventricular repolarization and an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia.
