Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we developed a tool to evaluate arrhythmogenic effect of drugs which is one of the most problem in drug discovery, by using cardiac cell model parameter optimization. In the system, the cardiac action potential is first measured by open chest guinea pig suction electrode. Then the action potential shape is reproduced with cardiac cell model by optimizing the ion channel permeability parameters. Finally, the changes in the ion channel permeability is used to estimate drug effect to the ion channels. From the experimental results, the drug inhibition to the ion channels of IKr, IKs and ICaL could be estimated by certain extent.
