摘要
We have investigated the effects of four fluoroquinolones on the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG) mediated K+ currents to evaluate their potential to induce QT-prolongation. HERG currents were measured from stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by means of the patch-clamp technique. Bath application of sparfloxacin, moxifloxacin and grepafloxacin produced an inhibition of HERG outward currents at -40 mV with EC50 of 13.5 +/- 0.8, 41.2 +/- 2.0 and 37.5 +/- 3.3 mug/ml, respectively. Current inhibitions were reversible after washout of the compounds. By contrast, ciprofloxacin at concentrations of up to 100 mug/ml did not effect HERG outward currents.
