Action of the hyperpolarization-activated current ( I h ) blocker ZD 7288 in hippocampal CA1 neurons

Abstract: The effects of ZD 7288, a "bradycardic" agent, in young rat hippocampal slices in vitro were studied. ZD 7288 (1-1000 microM) reduced the hyperpolarization-activated current (Ih) in CA1 pyramidal neurons by a voltage-independent blocking mechanism. Under current-clamp conditions, the bradycardic agent (10 microM) caused membrane hyperpolarization (by 5.9 +/- 0.5 mV) and a reduction of membrane conductance (by 17.9 +/- 4.1%). These data are consistent with the block of an inward current which is active at rest.… Show more

“…In contrast to the present results, the instantaneous current was insensitive to extracellular Cs ϩ , but its sensitivity to ZD7288 was not reported. In hippocampal pyramidal cells ZD7288, at 10 -20 M, blocked ϳ18% of the resting conductance (Gasparini and DiFrancesco 1997). Other authors, however, did not observe an instantaneous, ZD7288-sensitive conductance in thalamic relay neurons (Luthi et al 1998) and with coexpression of HCN with the MiRP1 protein in cardiac sinoatrial cells (Qu et al 2004).…”

“…At 50 M, ZD7288 has been reported to block glutamate receptors of both AMPA and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtypes (Chen 2004) and a low-voltage-activated Ca 2ϩ conductance (Felix et al 2003), but these conductances were blocked by DNQX and by voltage, respectively, in our experiments. In hippocampal pyramidal cells and in thalamic relay neurons, neither Na ϩ -nor Ca 2ϩ -dependent action potentials were affected by ZD7288 (Gasparini and DiFrancesco 1997;Luthi et al 1998;Maccaferri and McBain 1996). Furthermore, the removal of Ca 2ϩ does not affect the resting potential or the shape of action potentials in T stellate cells (Wickesberg and Oertel 1989), indicating that voltage-sensitive Ca 2ϩ conductances are small.…”

“…Several f-channel blocker molecules have been developed, such as UL-FS49 (Goethals et al, 1993;DiFrancesco, 1994), ZD7288 (BoSmith et al, 1993;Gasparini and DiFrancesco, 1997;Shin et al, 2001), and ivabradine (Thollon et al, 1994;Bois et al, 1996). These molecules have been shown to induce heart rate slowing with limited inotropic side effects, and have therefore a potential for therapeutic application in those cases where it is useful to slow heart rate without altering other cardiovascular functions.…”
