Table 3 Pharmacological properties of VSOR/VRAC

From: Physiology of the volume-sensitive/regulatory anion channel VSOR/VRAC. Part 1: from its discovery and phenotype characterization to the molecular entity identification

Broad specificity

Sensitivity to conventional type of Cl− channel blockers with two aromatic rings connected with a chain of several atoms

 

Sensitivity to etacrynic acid derivatives with a 2,3-dichlorophenoxyl fragment

Open-channel blocking

Depolarization-induced blocking by the pore-plugging action of anionic chemicals from the extracellular side
