Bioactivity Comments
Effects of dronedarone on atrial fibrilation are generally assessed in in vivo animal studies [4-5], or its effect on channel conductance measured in patch clamp experiments [1]. Since affinity/efficacy data for dronedarone at specific human molecular targets is scarce in the scientific literature, and due to the poly-pharmacology and complex and incompletely defined molecular mechanism of action we have not tagged a primary drug target for dronedarone.
