Electrophysiological characterization of the SK channel blockers methyl‐laudanosine and methyl‐noscapine in cell lines and rat brain slices

Abstract: 1 We have recently shown that the alkaloid methyl-laudanosine blocks SK channel-mediated afterhyperpolarizations (AHPs) in midbrain dopaminergic neurones. However, the relative potency of the compound on the SK channel subtypes and its ability to block AHPs of other neurones were unknown. 2 Using whole-cell patch-clamp experiments in transfected cell lines, we found that the compound blocks SK1, SK2 and SK3 currents with equal potency: its mean IC 50 s were 1.2, 0.8 and 1.8 mM, respectively. IK currents were u… Show more

“…More recently, the reversible blockers N-methyl-laudanosine (NML) and methyl-noscapine [40,41], bis-quaternary isoquinoliniums [42] and lipophilic tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives [43] have been developed. Tamapin from scorpion venom [44] and Lei-Dab7, a synthetic derivative of Leiurotoxin [45] selectively block K Ca 2.2 channels.…”

“…SK channels control the firing patterns of thalamocortical relay neurons [73], subthalamic neurons [68], globus pallidus neurons [75], cerebellar Purkinje neurons [69,70], deep cerebellar nuclei neurons (which express K Ca 2.1 and K Ca 2.2 channels; [71]), dorsal vagal neurons (mediated by K Ca 2.3 channels; [20,65]), mitral cells in the olfactory bulb [72], neurons in the inferior olive [91,92], neurons in the preBötzinger complex [74], central vestibular nuclei neurons [93], sympathetic neurons [66], noradrenergic neurons in the locus coreuleus [40], and spinal and hypoglossal motoneurons [94,95].…”

“…Ce programme a abouti à la découverte d'autres composés quaternaires, la N-méthyl-laudanosine (NML) et la N-méthyl-noscapine (NMN) ( Figure 5). Ces molécules bloquent les courants SK avec une puissance moyenne (IC 50 ≈ 2-4 μM) et de manière non sélective [41,42]. La faible puissance de la NML est due à un k off plus élevé que celui de l'apamine, ce qui en fait un bloqueur plus facilement réversible [41].…”

La faible puissance de la NML est due à un k off plus élevé que celui de l'apamine, ce qui en fait un bloqueur plus facilement réversible [41]. Le développement de dimères dérivés de la NML a ensuite permis de synthétiser des bloqueurs SK plus puissants dont l'affinité est proche de celle de l'UCL 1684 (Ki ≈ 20 nM) [43].…”
