TMEM16A chloride channel does not drive mucus production
15 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
channels such as TMEM16A can likely compensate for defective CFTR. However, TMEM16A was recently described as a key driver in mucus production/secretion. Here, we have examined whether indeed there is a causal relationship between TMEM16A and MUC5AC production, the main component of respiratory mucus. Our data show that TMEM16A and MUC5AC are inversely correlated during differentiation of human airway cells....
