Mechanism of sodium channel block by local anesthetics, antiarrhythmics, and anticonvulsants

Local anesthetics, antiarrhythmics, and anticonvulsants include both charged and electroneutral compounds that block voltage-gated sodium channels. Prior studies have revealed a common drug-binding region within the pore, but details about the binding sites and mechanism of block remain unclear. Her...
