Comparison of the effects of CPZ and AMTB on VEGF-induced rises in whole-cell currents in UM 92.1 cells. (A) Time course recording showing the current increases induced by VEGF (10 ng/ml) and after application of 20 μM AMTB. (B) Original traces of VEGF-induced current responses to voltage ramps. Current densities are shown before application (labeled as A), during application of VEGF (labeled as B), and after addition of AMTB (labeled as C). (C–D) Same recordings as shown in (A–B) but with 20 μM CPZ instead of AMTB. CPZ clearly reduced the VEGF-induced whole-cell increases. (E) Summary of patch-clamp experiments with VEGF, AMTB and CPZ. The asterisks (***) indicate statistically significant differences of in- and outward currents with VEGF without and with AMTB (n = 8–40; ***p < 0.005; paired tested). VEGF had no effect in the presence of CPZ.
