Effects of persistent sodium current blockade in respiratory circuits depend on the pharmacological mechanism of action and network dynamics.

The mechanism(s) of action of most commonly used pharmacological blockers of voltage-gated ion channels are well understood; however, this knowledge is rarely considered when interpreting experimental data. Effects of blockade are often assumed to be equivalent, regardless of the mechanism of the bl...
