Abstract excerpt
Effects of imipramine on the cloned P2X2 receptor/channel and its mutants expressed in Xenopus oocytes were examined. Imipramine (100 microM) partially blocked an ionic current mediated through the wild-type P2X2 receptor/channel. With a higher concentration (300 microM) of imipramine, the current block was attenuated, suggesting that the second, lower affinity, 'unblocking' binding-site for imipramine exists in...
