Effect of oxymatrine on sodium channel in isolated ventricular myocytes in guinea pig / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM: To observe the effect of oxymatrine on sodium channel in isolated cardiomyocytes of guinea pig. METHODS: Single ventricular myocytes of guinea pigs were obtained by enzymatic dissociation. The whole - cell patch clamp recording technique was used to record the change of sodium current by different dosage of oxymatrine from 1 to 1 000 ?mol?L-1 . RESULTS: Oxymatrine decreased sodium current in a dose - dependent manner. Oxymatrine (100 ?mol?L-1) decreased the current density by 40% (P
