Anthracene292carboxylic acid ( 92AC) added to the bath solution further enhanced the outward component of isoproterenol2in2 duced currents in a reversible manner, whereas 52nitro222(32phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB) or diphenylamine222carboxylic acid (DPC) induced a biphasic effect on the currents. Either NPPB or DPC first produced a transient increase in the outward compo2 nent of current before ensuing inhibition. Intracellular NPPB was found to potentiate iso2 proterenol2activated currents. It is concluded that these monocarboxylic acid derivatives have different binding sites in cardiac ventricular myocytes, which might partially account for the varied effects in blocking anion channels.
