Example sentences for: aminopyridine
How can you use “aminopyridine” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Whole-cell patch clamp currents recorded from a PGC-2 cell, in response to a series of six depolarizing test pulses of 1 s duration (step +20 mV) from a holding potential of -50 mV, before (left) and after (middle) application of 2 mM 4-aminopyridine (4-AP).
4-aminopyridine, at millimolar concentrations, completely inhibits K +currents conducted by heterologously expressed KCNA channels and native GC I Kur , but lacks significant effects on native GC I Ks [ 4 12 13 20 ] . Kusaka showed that antagonism of 4-AP sensitive slowly inactivating delayed rectifier K +currents suppressed both basal and luteinizing hormone (LH)-stimulated progesterone production [ 21 ] . In this report, we extend those findings by demonstrating 4-AP inhibition of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)-stimulated progesterone production, and by elucidating the underlying mechanisms.
To this end, we treated primary cultures of GC and monolayers of the immortalized granulosa cell line PGC-2 [ 19 ] with the K +channel antagonist 4-aminopyridine (4-AP).
