Popis: | The effect of chlorophos (dipterex, trichlorphon) on high-threshold potassium and calcium currents is studied on isolated snail neurons using the patch-clamp technique. Chlorophos (10–1000 μmol/liter) is found to reversibly lower the peak amplitude of a high-threshold potassium current by 30% on average and exerts two independent effects on a high-threshold calcium current: reversible lowering of the peak amplitude by 35% on average and, in 30% of cases, reversible inhibition of its activation, inactivation, and deactivation. this effect is abolished by adding diltiazem (a calcium channel antagonist) in a concentration of 100 μmol/liter to the medium. |
