The blocking effects of the cationic procaine, a typical local anesthetic (LA), on ion transport through gramicidin A (gA) channels between two aqueous phases (W1 and W2) were electrochemically elucidated. Although the gA channels promoted the permeation of monovalent cations, especially Cs+, the addition of procaine to W1 decreased the permeation of Cs+ through these channels from W1 to W2. This can be explained based on the following mechanism. Hydrophobic cationic procaine tends to approach the pore of a gA channel. Since it is too large to enter the pore, it cannot pass through the channel. Thus, cationic procaine inhibits the permeation of Cs+ from W1 to W2 by competing with Cs+ for access to the entrances of the gA channels. It is postulated that the decrease in the apparent activity of Cs+ caused by this competition prevents ion transport through the gA channels.

通过局部麻醉性普鲁卡因的抑制抑制通过杀螨素A通道的离子运输。

用电化学方法阐明了阳离子普鲁卡因(一种典型的局部麻醉药(LA))对通过短杆菌肽A(gA)通道在两个水相(W1和W2)之间进行离子迁移的阻断作用。尽管gA通道促进了单价阳离子(尤其是Cs +)的渗透,但向W1添加普鲁卡因降低了Cs +通过这些通道从W1到W2的渗透。可以基于以下机制对此进行解释。疏水性阳离子普鲁卡因倾向于接近gA通道的孔。由于太大而无法进入孔,因此它无法通过通道。因此,阳离子普鲁卡因通过与Cs +竞争来抑制Cs +从W1到W2的渗透。用于访问gA通道的入口。据推测,由这种竞争引起的Cs +表观活性的降低阻止了离子通过gA通道的迁移。
