Facilitation of hERG Activation by Its Blocker: A Mechanism to Reduce Drug-Induced Proarrhythmic Risk

Modulation of the human Ether-à-go-go-Related Gene (hERG) channel, a crucial voltage-gated potassium channel in the repolarization of action potentials in ventricular myocytes of the heart, has significant implications on cardiac electrophysiology and can be either antiarrhythmic or proarrhythmic.
