The effects of rutaecarpine on ionic currents of NG108-15 neuronal cells were investigated in this study. Rutaecarpine (2-100 microM) suppressed the amplitude of delayed rectifier K+ current (I(K(DR))) in a concentration-dependent manner. The IC50 value for rutaecarpine-induced inhibition of I(K(DR))
