pubmed-article:6088874 | pubmed:abstractText | Effect of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) on the inward rectifier K channel of the isolated guinea pig ventricular cell was studied using patch clamp technique. In that LPC (100 microM) decreased the magnitude of the single channel conductance from 48 +/- 5 pS (mean and S.D., n = 5) to 12 +/- 9 pS (n = 8), this event may be the prime factor related to the alleged LPC-induced depolarization of cardiac tissues. | lld:pubmed |
