The electrophysiologic actions of the class III antiarrhythmic agents, GLG-V-13 and d,l-sotalol, were examined in superfused normal and ischemically injured epicardium. Both drugs produced concentration and reverse-use dependent prolongation of the action potential duration in normal myocardium without altering resting potential, action potential amplitude, or Vmax. Both drugs increased the slope of restitution curves in normal epicardium but prevented action potential alternans at short cycle lengths. The response of superfused ischemically injured left ventricular epicardium to drug 4 days after coronary artery ligation was determined by the extent of ischemic injury, with no electrophysiologic changes produced within epicardial cells characterized by prominent action potential shortening and no further action potential shortening with pacing. Cells demonstrating less severe injury (as evidenced by less severely depressed action potential amplitudes, Vmax, and action potential durations) retained a limited ability to respond to drug administration with action potential prolongation. A concentration-dependent, increased disparity of action potential duration was observed concurrent with the ability of single premature stimuli to induce monomorphic tachycardia. The present data demonstrate a variable response of ischemically injured canine epicardial cells to action potential prolongation with GLG-V-13 and d,l-sotalol, facilitating localized reentry in vitro, despite a failure of the same drugs to facilitate reentrant tachycardia in vivo.

The effects of a new Class III antiarrhythmic drug, GLG-V-13, on the 4-aminopyridine sensitive transient outward current, on the inward rectifier potassium current, on the ATP sensitive potassium current and on the rapid and slow components of the delayed rectifier potassium current were studied in single rabbit ventricular myocytes using the whole-cell voltage-clamp technique. GLG-V-13 blocked the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium current in a dose-dependent manner, with an estimated EC50 value of 0.36 microM. At high concentration, the slow component of the delayed rectifier potassium current was also depressed by the drug (40% effect at 10 microM concentration). The transient outward current, the inward rectifier potassium current and the ATP sensitive potassium current were not influenced by GLG-V-13, even at 10 microM concentration. Thus, GLG-V-13 blocks predominantly the rapid component of the delayed rectifier potassium current which may play a significant role in the prolongation of repolarization by the drug in ventricular tissue.

The electrophysiologic effects of the imidazole-substituted diheterabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane compounds GLG-V-13 and KMC-IV-84 were evaluated in canine ventricular tissues using intracellular and extracellular recordings. The drugs produced a concentration-dependent prolongation of action potential duration at 90% of repolarization in Purkinje (338 +/- 26 to 611 +/- 43 msec, 10 mg/l GLG-V-13; 328 +/- 17 to 468 +/- 18 msec, 10 mg/l KMC-IV-84), in right ventricular subendocardium (260 +/- 18 to 335 +/- 18 msec, 10 mg/l GLG-V-13; 221 +/- 9 to 264 +/- 13 msec, 10 mg/l KMC-IV-84) and in left ventricular epicardium (195 +/- 13 to 256 +/- 18 msec, 10 mg/l GLG-V-13; 203 +/- 11 to 273 +/- 26 msec, 10 mg/l KMC-IV-84) without altering resting membrane potential, action potential amplitude, overshoot potential, Vmax, conduction velocity or Purkinje fiber automaticity. Prolongation of the effective refractory period was proportional to the change in action potential duration at 90% of repolarization. Prolongation of action potential duration at 90% of repolarization was maximal at paced cycle lengths exceeding 1000 msec and was minimal at a paced cycle length of 250 msec (Purkinje: 266 +/- 20 vs. 6 +/- 8 msec, GLG-V-13; 178 +/- 12 vs. 10 +/- 10 msec, KMC-IV-84. Right ventricular subendocardium: 70 +/- 12 vs. 10 +/- 2 msec, GLG-V-13; 60 +/- 8 vs. 19 +/- 6 msec. Left ventricular epicardium: 67 +/- 13 vs. 10 +/- 5 msec, GLG-V-13; 68 +/- 12 vs. 16 +/- 8 msec, KMC-IV-84). An increase in K+(o) to 12 mM reduced action potential prolongation by GLG-V-13 and KMC-IV-84 in left ventricular epicardium. The results demonstrate selective class III electrophysiologic properties for imidazole-substituted diheterabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane compounds.
