Expression of CFTR, a hallmark gene of ionocyes, is downregulated in salivary glands of Sjögren’s syndrome patients

2022-09-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> The autoimmune exocrinopathy, Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS), is associated with secretory defects in salivary glands. The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) of the chloride channel is a master regulator of fluid secretion, but its role in SjS has not been investigated. Our research found a link between CFTR and SjS at the genetic and protein levels, as well as through cli...
