hERG potassium channel blockage by scorpion toxin BmKKx2 enhances erythroid differentiation of human leukemia cells K562. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The hERG potassium channel can modulate the proliferation of the chronic myelogenous leukemic K562 cells, and its role in the erythroid differentiation of K562 cells still remains unclear.The hERG potassium channel blockage by a new 36-residue scorpion ...

Molecular Insights Into the Gating Kinetics of the Cardiac hERG Channel, Illuminated by Structure and Molecular Dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
The rapidly activating delayed rectifier K+ current generated by the cardiac hERG potassium channel encoded by KCNH2 is the most important reserve current for cardiac repolarization.

Structural modeling of hERG channel–drug interactions using Rosetta

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) not only encodes a potassium-selective voltage-gated ion channel essential for normal electrical activity in the heart but is also a major drug anti-target.

Voltage-Dependent Gating of hERG Potassium Channels [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2012
The mechanisms by which voltage-gated channels sense changes in membrane voltage and energetically couple this with opening of the ion conducting pore has been the source of significant interest. In voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels, much of our knowledge in this area comes from Shaker-type channels, for which voltage-dependent gating is quite ...

Inhibitory effects and mechanism of dihydroberberine on hERG channels expressed in HEK293 cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) potassium channel conducts rapid delayed rectifier potassium currents (IKr) and contributes to phase III cardiac action potential repolarization.

An Insight into the Potassium Currents of hERG and Their Simulation

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
By assuming that a stepwise outward movement of the four S4 segments of the hERG potassium channel determines a concomitant progressive increase in the flow of the permeant potassium ions, the inward and outward potassium currents can be simulated by ...

Alprenolol Inhibits Herg Potassium Channels [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
The action of alprenolol, a non-selective beta blocker as well as 5-HT receptor antagonist, on the cloned cardiac human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) channels was investigated using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Alprenolol reduced HERG whole-cell currents in a reversible concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value and a Hill ...
