Molecular Mechanisms Of Mitragynine Inhibition On Herg1a/1b Channel

The leaves of Mitragyna speciosa Korth (M. speciosa), commonly known as ketum in Malaysia, have been widely used to treat common illnesses such as intestinal infections, muscle pain, cough, diarrhea, diabetes, hypertension and to improve blood circulation. Nevertheless, there are growing concerns ab...
