Abstract excerpt
1. Changes in proximal tubule function have been reported in cystic fibrosis patients. The aim of this study was to investigate proximal tubule function in the Cftr(tm2cam)deltaF508 cystic fibrosis (CF) mouse model. A range of techniques were used including renal clearance studies, in situ microperfusion, RT-PCR and whole-cell patch clamping. 2. Renal Na(+) clearance was similar in wild-type (1.4 +/- 0.3 microl...
