The Pesticide Pyrethroid Metabolite 3-Phenoxybenzoic Acid (3-PBA) Impairs Human Cardiac Nav1.5 and Action Potential Depolarization
This study demonstrates that 3-PBA interacts with human cardiac Nav1.5 expressed in Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK293) cells, and significantly increases INa-L in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 51.3 ± 5.1 µM, and suggests that its cardiotoxic potential may become clinically relevant under conditions of h...
