SsTx inhibits KCNQ4. 2 / 2

reach
"In addition, the Hill slope is 1.18 +/- 0.03 for inhibition of KCNQ4 by SsTx (XREF_FIG), and thus multiple SsTx molecules could interact with positive synergy to inhibit the channel."

reach
"Given that KCNQ4 is important in the regulation of pulmonary vascular tone, and blocking KCNQ4 increases the isometric tension of interlobular arteries, we hypothesized that SsTx may contribute to the vasospasm by inhibiting the KCNQ4 channel as reported in clinical cases of centipede envenomation."
