Abstract excerpt
Chloride channels play important roles in homeostasis and regulate cell volume, transepithelial transport, and electrical excitability. Despite recent progress made in the genetic and molecular aspect of chloride channels, their pharmacology is still poorly understood. The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a cAMP-regulated epithelial chloride channel for which mutations cause cystic...
