TABLE 1. Estimates of IC50 values and Hill coefficients for resting, inactivated, and open states of Na+ channel isoforms.

Data were collected by pulse protocols described in Figs. 2, 6, and 9. Results were fitted with Hill equation; IC50 values are shown with Hill coefficients listed in parenthesis. The resting and inactivated Na+ channel block were determined in wild-type isoforms, whereas the peak and open sustained block were determined in inactivation-deficient rNav1.4-WCW, hNav1.5-CW, and hNav1.7-WCW mutant Na+ channels. Open-channel block of sustained rNav1.4-WCW/F1579K Na+ currents displayed a significant increase in its IC50 value compared with rNav1.4-WCW (P < 0.001). All data were derived from n = 5 except as indicated otherwise.
