Abstract excerpt

The aim of this study was to examine the question of whether activation of wt-CFTR (wild-type cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) by cAMP and the opening of a Cl- conductance is paralleled by exocytosis and corresponding increases in membrane capacitance. To this end three types...
