  • Our finding that 24 h exposure to 4-AP decreased the number of viable GC in serum-free but not serum-supplemented primary cultures is consistent with the reported effects of 4-AP and other K +channel antagonists on other cell types [ 8 43 44 ] . It has been shown that the concentrations of K +channel antagonists required to inhibit growth of human bladder tumor cells can be 70 times higher in the presence than the absence of serum [ 43 ] . 4-AP has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of human myelobastic leukemia cells by preventing growth factor activation of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways [ 42 ] . This mechanism may be responsible for the anti-proliferative effect of 4-AP manifest in Table 1.
