摘要
GS-458967, 6-(4-(Trifluoromethoxy) phenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)[ 1,2,4] triazolo[4,3-a] pyridine (GS967) is a recently described, novel, sodium channel inhibitor exhibiting potent antiarrhythmic effects in various in vitro and in vivo models. The antiarrhythmic mechanism has been attributed to preferential suppression of late sodium current. However, there has been no reported systematic investigation of the effects of this compound on isolated sodium channels. Here, we examined the effects of GS967 on peak (I-NaP) and late (I-NaL) sodium current recorded from cells that heterologously expressed human cardiac voltage-gated sodium channel, the principle cardiac sodium channel. As previously described, we observed that GS967 exerted tonic block of I-NaL (63%) to a significantly greater extent than I-NaP (19%). However, GS967 also caused a reduction of I-NaP in a frequency-dependent manner, consistent with use-dependent block (UDB). GS967 evoked more potent UDB of I-NaP (IC50 = 0.07 mu M) than ranolazine (16 mu M) and lidocaine (17 mu M). Use-dependent block was best explained by a significant slowing of recovery from fast and slow inactivation with a significant enhancement of slow inactivation in the presence of GS967. Furthermore, GS967 was found to exert these same effects on a prototypical long QT syndrome mutation (delKPQ). An engineered mutation at an interaction site for local anesthetic agents (F1760A) partially attenuated the effect of GS967 on UDB, but had no effect on tonic I-NaL block. We conclude that GS967 is a preferential inhibitor of I-NaL, but it also exerts previously unreported strong effects on slow inactivation and recovery from inactivation, resulting in substantial UDB that is not entirely dependent on a known interaction site for local anesthetic agents.
