Abstract
Sertraline is a commonly used antidepressant of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) class. In this study, we have used the patch-clamp technique to assess the effects of sertraline on Kv2.1 channels heterologously expressed in HEK-293 cells and on the voltage-gated potassium currents (IKv) of Neuro 2a cells, which are predominantly mediated by Kv2.1 channels. Our results reveal that sertraline inhibits Kv2.1 channels in a concentration-dependent manner. The sertraline-induced inhibition was not voltage-dependent and did not require the channels to be open. The kinetics of activation and deactivation were accelerated and decelerated, respectively, by sertraline. Moreover, the inhibition by this drug was use-dependent. Notably, sertraline significantly modified the inactivation mechanism of Kv2.1 channels; the steady-state inactivation was shifted to hyperpolarized potentials, the closed-state inactivation was enhanced and accelerated, and the recovery from inactivation was slowed, suggesting that this is the main mechanism by which sertraline inhibits Kv2.1 channels. Overall, this study provides novel insights into the pharmacological actions of sertraline on Kv2.1 channels, shedding light on the intricate interaction between SSRIs and ion channel function.

Abstract
A multitarget drug design approach is actively developing in modern medicinal chemistry and pharmacology, especially with regard to multifactorial diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. A detailed study of many well-known drugs developed within the single-target approach also often reveals additional mechanisms of their real pharmacological action. One of the multitarget drug design approaches can be the identification of the basic pharmacophore models corresponding to a wide range of the required target ligands. Among such models in the group of cardioprotectors is the linked biaromatic system. This review develops the concept of a "basic pharmacophore" using the biaromatic pharmacophore of cardioprotectors as an example. It presents an analysis of possible biological targets for compounds corresponding to the biaromatic pharmacophore and an analysis of the spectrum of biological targets for the five most known and most studied cardioprotective drugs corresponding to this model, and their involvement in the biological effects of these drugs.

Abstract
It is well demonstrated that antidepressant fluoxetine has significant inhibitory effects on voltage-gated potassium channels. So far, the concise regulation of fluoxetine on Kv2.1, the predominant delayed rectifier potassium channel subtype in the central nervous system, are rarely reported. Here patch-clamp recording was used to investigate the inhibitory effects of fluoxetine on Kv2.1 potassium channels stably expressed in HEK293 cells. The results showed fluoxetine dose-dependently suppressed Kv2.1 currents with an IC50 of 51.3 μM. At the test potential positive to +50 mV, fluoxetine 50 μM voltage-dependently suppressed Kv2.1 currents with an electrical distance δ of 0.28. Moreover, fluoxetine 50 μM did not affect the activation process of Kv2.1, but reduced the decay time constant τinact and obviously accelerated the inactivation process of Kv2.1 and left-shifted the half-maximal inactivation potential of Kv2.1 potassium channel by 9.8 mV. Fluoxetine 50 μM notably delayed the recovery process of Kv2.1 from inactivation with increased time constants. In addition, fluoxetine 50 μM use-dependently inhibited Kv2.1 currents at different frequencies. In conclusion, the inhibition of Kv2.1 by fluoxetine was concentration-dependent, voltage-dependent and use-dependent. The accelerated steady-state inactivation of Kv2.1 channels induced by fluoxetine might be ascribed to the delay of the recovery process of Kv2.1.

Inhibition by the atypical antipsychotic risperidone of voltage-dependent K + channels in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells. Eur J Pharmacol 2020; 874:173027. [PMID: 32084421 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2020.173027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2019] [Revised: 02/03/2020] [Accepted: 02/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
We evaluated the inhibitory effects of the atypical antipsychotic drug risperidone on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels in rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells. Risperidone suppressed Kv currents in reversible and concentration-dependent manners with an apparent half-maximal effective concentration (IC50 value) of 5.54 ± 0.66 μM and a slope factor of 1.22 ± 0.07. The inactivation of Kv currents was significantly accelerated by risperidone. The rate constants of association and dissociation for risperidone were 0.25 ± 0.01 μM-1s-1 and 1.36 ± 0.14 s-1, respectively. Application of risperidone shifted the steady-state activation curve in the positive direction and the inactivation curve in the negative direction, suggesting that the risperidone-induced inhibition of Kv channels was mediated by effects on the voltage sensors of the channels. Application of train pulses at 1 and 2 Hz led to a progressive increase in the blockage of Kv currents by risperidone. In addition, the recovery time constants from inactivation were extended in the presence of risperidone, indicating that risperidone inhibited Kv channels in a use (state)-dependent manner. Pretreatment with the Kv1.5 subtype inhibitor reduced the inhibitory effects of risperidone on Kv channels. However, pretreatment with a Kv2.1 or Kv7.X subtype inhibitor did not affect the inhibitory effects of risperidone. Risperidone induced vasoconstriction and membrane depolarization. Based on these results, we conclude that risperidone inhibits Kv channels in a concentration-, time-, and state-dependent manners. Our results should be taken into consideration when using risperidone to study the kinetics of K+ channels in vascular smooth muscle.

Abstract
Doxepin, tricyclic antidepressant, is widely used for the treatment of depressive disorders. Our present study determined the inhibitory effect of doxepin on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels in freshly isolated rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells using a whole-cell patch clamp technique. Vascular Kv currents were inhibited by doxepin in a concentration-dependent manner, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 6.52 ± 1.35 μM and a Hill coefficient of 0.72 ± 0.03. Doxepin did not change the steady-state activation curve or inactivation curve, suggesting that doxepin does not alter the gating properties of Kv channels. Application of train pulses (1 or 2 Hz) slightly reduced the amplitude of Kv currents. However, the inhibition of Kv channels by train pulses were not changed in the presence of doxepin. Pretreatment with Kv1.5 inhibitor, DPO-1, effectively reduced the doxepin-induced inhibition of the Kv current. However, pretreatment with Kv2.1 inhibitor (guangxitoxin) or Kv7 inhibitor (linopirdine) did not change the inhibitory effect of doxepin on Kv currents. Inhibition of Kv channels by doxepin caused vasoconstriction and membrane depolarization. Therefore, our present study suggests that doxepin inhibits Kv channels in a concentration-dependent, but not use-, and state-dependent manners, irrespective of its own function.

Inhibition of the Voltage-Dependent K + Current by the Tricyclic Antidepressant Desipramine in Rabbit Coronary Arterial Smooth Muscle Cells. Cardiovasc Toxicol 2019; 18:252-260.

Abstract
We describe the effect of a tricyclic antidepressant drug desipramine on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) currents in freshly isolated rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells using a conventional whole-cell patch clamp technique. Application of desipramine rapidly decreased the Kv current amplitude in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 5.91 ± 0.18 μM and a Hill coefficient of 0.61 ± 0.09. The steady-state inactivation curves of the Kv channels were not affected by desipramine. However, desipramine shifted the steady-state inactivation curves toward a more negative potential. Application of train pulses (1 or 2 Hz) slightly reduced the Kv current amplitude. Such reduction in the Kv current amplitude by train pulses increased in the presence of desipramine. Furthermore, the inactivation recovery time constant was also increased in the presence of desipramine, suggesting that desipramine-induced inhibition of the Kv current was use-dependent. Application of a Kv1.5 inhibitor (DPO-1) and/or a Kv2.1 inhibitor (guangxitoxin) did not change the inhibitory effect of desipramine on Kv currents. Based on these results, we concluded that desipramine directly inhibited the Kv channels in a dose- and state-dependent manner, but the effect was independent of norepinephrine/serotonin reuptake inhibition.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of the tricyclic antidepressant clomipramine on voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels in native rabbit coronary arterial smooth muscle cells. Our results showed that clomipramine inhibited vascular Kv channels in a concentration-dependent manner, with an IC50 value of 8.61 ± 4.86 μM and a Hill coefficient (n) of 0.58 ± 0.07. The application of 10 μM clomipramine did not affect the activation curves of the Kv channels; however, the inactivation curves of the Kv channels were shifted toward a more negative potential. The clomipramine-induced inhibition of Kv currents was not changed by the application of train pulses (1 or 2 Hz), which demonstrated that clomipramine inhibited Kv current in a state (use)-independent manner. Pretreatment with the Kv1.5 and Kv2.1 inhibitors, DPO-1 and guangxitoxin, respectively, partially reduced the clomipramine-induced inhibition of Kv currents. Therefore, we concluded that clomipramine inhibited vascular Kv channels in a concentration-dependent, but state (use)-independent manner, regardless of its own function.
