"Although ML67-33 activation
matches that of the most effective but unspecific activator, arachidonic
acid, ML67-33 stimulation of K 2.1
(TREK-1) does not require Ct (Figure 6F), a
channel element that is central to the action of chloroform, arachidonic acid, and other gating inputs."

"The observation that ML67-33 activates K 2.1 (TREK-1) in excised membrane patches (Figure 5) demonstrates that the compound does not act by
perturbing channel trafficking or via a mechanism that involves cytosolic
proteins and suggests that ML67-33 acts directly on the channel.Diverse gating signals that include protons, temperature, mechanical
force, and phosphorylation control K 2.1 (TREK-1) function."
