Modulation of the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv2.1 by the anti-tumor alkylphospholipid perifosine.

CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, these results show that perifosine modified the Kv2.1 inactivation gating resulting in a decrease of the current amplitude. These data will help to elucidate the mechanism of action of this promising anti-cancer drug on ion channels and their possible implications. PMID: 26922553 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
