Figure 6. Modulators of KV10.1 and KV11.1.
Kv10.1 and Kv11.1 inhibitors:(40), astemizole199–202; (41), imipramine199; (42) dofetilide. Kv10.1 inhibitors have been proposed for the treatment of cancer9,179. KV11.1 (hERG) inhibitors prolong the QT interval and can be both antiarrythmic and proarrythmic (e.g. recall of the antihistamine astemizole). KV11.1 activators: (43) NS1643 (Neurosearch)208; (44) NS3623 (Neurosearch)209; (45), RPR260243 (Sanofi-Aventis)210; (46), PD307243 (GlaxoSmithKline)211; (47), A935143 (Abbott Laboratories)212. KV11.1 activators have been proposed as potential antiarrythmics205.
