1 METHODS: We used the whole cell, patch clamp technique to test whether duloxetine interacts with the neuronal Nav1.7 Na+ channel as a potential target. Duloxetine Hydrochloride sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9 Homo sapiens
2 Resting and inactivated Nav1.7 Na+ channel block by duloxetine were measured by conventional pulse protocols in transfected human embryonic kidney cells. Duloxetine Hydrochloride sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9 Homo sapiens
3 Finally, duloxetine elicited strong use-dependent block of neuronal transient Nav1.7 Na+ currents during repetitive stimulations. Duloxetine Hydrochloride sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9 Homo sapiens
