Bupivacaine inhibits a small conductance calcium‐activated potassium type 2 channel in human embryonic kidney 293 cells
Abstract Background Bupivacaine blocks many ion channels in the heart muscle, causing severe cardiotoxicity. Small-conductance calcium-activated potassium type 2 channels (SK2 channels) are widely distributed in the heart cells and are involved in relevant physiological functions. However, whether b...
