Abstract
Large-conductance cationic channels (LCC) expressed on the
Pukinje neuron nuclei of the rat cerebellum, characterized by
selectivity to monovalent cations, slow kinetics and potentialdependent
activity. The identification of a specific LCC
channel blocker is the first step in determining their structure
and physiological role. In order to identify components that
specifically interact with LCC channels on the inner nuclear
membrane, we investigated the effects of venoms of five
animals: forest scorpion (Heteromerus laoticus), monocled
cobra (Naja kaouthia), steppe viper (Vipera renardi), banded
krait (Bungarus fasciatus), and puff adder (Bitis arietans) on
the characteristics of these channels. It has been shown that
all investigated venoms significantly reduce the open state
probability of LCC channels in average by 76 - 86%. The
application venoms of H. laoticus and B. fasciatus leads to a
decrease in the currents amplitude of LCC channels, by 43%
and 26% respectively. The influence of other compounds as
blocker of LCC channels was less pronounced. Obtained data
can be used for further direct search of specific and high affinity
blockers of these channels.
