Disclosed herein are methods of using polyunsaturated fatty acids and derivatives thereof (“PUFAs”) to modulate I
ks
channels to treat conditions associated with a disruption in I
ks
channel activity, such as cardiac arrhythmias. In particular, disclosed herein are negatively charged PUFAs having decreased pK
a
values, which can activate (i.e., open) I
Ks
channels, and positively charged PUFAs that can inhibit (i.e., close) I
KS
channels.
