Our bioassay
- Alomone Labs Rosiglitazone inhibits KV4.2 channels expressed in Xenopus oocytesA. Time course of KV4.2 peak current amplitude, elicited by 100 ms voltage step from holding potential of -100mV to 0mV, delivered every 10 seconds. Application of 100 µM Rosiglitazone (#R-125) blocks the KV4.2 current in a reversible manner (indicated by the horizontal bar). B. Representative current traces before and during application of 100 µM Rosiglitazone as indicated.

Scientific background Rosiglitazone is known to activate Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR), ligand-activated transcription factors that belong to the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily1. Data shows that Rosiglitazone blocks KV4.3 channels with an IC50 = 24.5 μM2, Kir6.1 channels with as IC50 = 2 μM3 and blocks TRPM3 channels with IC50 = 5-10 μM4. At high concentrations Rosiglitazone activates TRPC5 channels4.
Target KV4, Kir6.1, TRPM3, TRPC5 channels
