"The observation that the ML277-induced opening of KCNQ1 is independent of PIP 2 is supported by a previous electrophysiology study, which showed that ML277 can activate KCNQ1 with the PIP 2 depleted by the Ciona intestinalis voltage sensor-containing phosphatase upon membrane depolarization ( xref )."

"The ability of ML277 to abolish calcium transient and action potential alternans in rabbit atrial myocytes (14), and reverse decreased IKs to partially restore action potential duration in LQT1 patient-derived human iPSC-cardiomyocytes (15), has led others to report IKs may have therapeutic value as an antiarrhythmic target.Here, we demonstrate that ML277 can impart cardioprotection in cellular and whole-heart models of acute coronary syndromes, via a mechanism involving action potential shortening and reduced Ca accumulation, similar to established cardioprotective pathways."

"This group [XREF_BIBR] later found that ML277 potentiates heteromultimeric KCNQ1 and KCNE1 channels but the increasing KCNE1 expression level reduced and eventually abolished ML277 's effect on KCNQ1 and KCNE1 channels, indicating a competition between KCNE1 and ML277 when interacting with KCNQ1."

"The observation that the ML277-induced opening of KCNQ1 is independent of PIP is supported by a previous electrophysiology study, which showed that ML277 can activate KCNQ1 with the PIP depleted by the Ciona intestinalis voltage sensor-containing phosphatase upon membrane depolarization (37)."

"Like expression with the KCNE1-L51H mutant, ML277 and R-L3 both significantly increased KCNQ1/KCNE1-G52R current amplitude, slowed channel deactivation, and caused a hyperpolarizing shift in channel activation (Figure 5), Note that in the absence of drugs, the expressed channels have reduced current amplitude, but the activation and deactivation kinetics differ from KCNQ1 alone, like altered channel activity reported by Ma, et al. and Bianchi (Bianchi et al., 1999; Ma et al., 2003) (see Supplementary Figure S1)."
