Retigabine holds K(V)7 channels open and stabilizes the resting potential
The anticonvulsant Retigabine is a K(V)7 channel agonist used to treat hyperexcitability disorders in humans. Retigabine shifts the voltage dependence for activation of the heteromeric K(V)7.2/K(V)7.3 channel to more negative potentials, thus facilitating activation. Although the molecular mechanism...
