TABLE 1

Half-maximum inhibitory concentrations (IC50) for the exploratory compound on wild-type hNav1.4 channels, F1586C, and Y1593C hNav1.4 mutants

The IC50 values and slope factors (nH) were calculated from the fit of concentration-effect relationships with eq. 1 at stimulation frequencies of 0.1 and 10 Hz. The 0.1-to-10-Hz IC50 ratio is reported.
