Inhibitory Effects of Nobiletin on Voltage-Gated Na+ Channel in Rat Ventricular Myocytes Based on Electrophysiological Analysis and Molecular Docking Method
Abstract:Nobiletin (NOB) has attracted much attention owing to its outstanding bioactivities. This study aimed to investigate its anti-arrhythmic effect through electrophysiological and molecular docking studies. We assessed the anti-arrhythmic effects of NOB using aconitine-induced ventricular arrhythmia in a rat model and the electrophysiological effects of NOB on rat cardiomyocytes utilizing whole-cell patch-clamp techniques. Moreover, we investigated the binding characters of NOB with rNav1.5, rNav1.5/QQQ, and hNaV… Show more
