Background: Voltage-gated Na+ channels modulate membrane excitability in excitable tissues. Inhibition of Na+ channels has been implicated in the effects of volatile anesthetics on both nervous and peripheral excitable tissues. The authors investigated isoform-selective effects of isoflurane on the major Na+ channel isoforms expressed in excitable tissues.Methods: Rat Na(v)1.2, Na(v)1.4, or Na(v)1.5 a subunits heterologously expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells were analyzed by whole cell voltage clamp recording. The effects of isoflurane on Na+ current activation, inactivation, and recovery from inactivation were analyzed.Results: The cardiac isoform Na(v)1.5 activated at more negative potentials (peak I-Na at -30 mV) than the neuronal Na(v)1.2 (0 mV) or skeletal muscle Na(v)1.4 (-10 mV) isoforms. Isoflurane reversibiv inhibited all three isoforms in a concentration- and voltage-de pendent manner at clinical concentrations (IC50 0.70, 0.61, and 0.45 mM, respectively, for Na(v)1.2, Na(v)1.4, and Na(v)1.5 from a physiologic holding potential of -70 mV). Inhibition was greater from a holding potential of -70 mV than from -100 mV, especially for Na(v)1.4 and Na(v)1.5. Isoflurane enhanced inactivation of all three isoforms due to a hyperpolarizing shift in the voltage dependence of steady state fast inactivation. Inhibition of Na(v)1.4 and Na(v)1.5 by isoflurane was attributed primarily to enhanced inactivation, whereas inhibition of Na(v)1.2, which had a more positive V-1/2 of inactivation, was due primarily to tonic block.Conclusions: Two principal mechanisms contribute to Na+ channel inhibition by isoflurane: enhanced inactivation due to a hyperpolarizing shift in the voltage dependence of steady state fast inactivation (Na(v)1.5 approximate to Na(v)1.4 > Na(v)1(.)2) and tonic block (Na(v)1.2 > Na(v)1.4 approximate to Na(v)1.5). These novel mechanistic differences observed between isoforms suggest a potential pharmacologic basis for discrimination between Na+ channel isoforms to enhance anesthetic specificity.
