Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: There is great interest in the development of potentiator drugs to increase the activity of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in cystic fibrosis. We tested the ability of several anions to potentiate CFTR activity by a novel mechanism. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: Patch clamp recordings were used to investigate the ability of extracellular pseudohalide anions...
