The effect of emodepside on voltage-activation of Ce SLO-1 and hum KCNMA1.

<p>Analysis of the current-voltage relationship of the data sets shown in <a href="http://www.plosntds.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pntd.0004062#pntd.0004062.g006" target="_blank">Fig 6</a> and Fig 7 for Ce SLO-1 and hum KCNMA1 whole cell currents expressed in HEK293 cells before and after treatment with emodepside (100nM). Ce SLO-1 currents were recorded before and 12 min after emodepside application. Hum KCNMA1 currents were recorded before and 5 min after emodepside application. Membrane potential was held at -60mV and stepped to between -100 and +90mV in 10mV increments for 50ms. Data points are the mean ± s.e.mean of n = 9 for Ce SLO-1 and n = 8 for hum KCNMA1. The amplitude of Ce SLO-1 currents in the presence of 100nM emodepside was significantly greater than currents recorded in the absence of emodepside between +20 and +90mV and for hum KCNMA1 was significantly greater than currents recorded in the absence of emodepside between +70 and +90mV; p<0.05; two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni post-hoc tests.
