Abstract:The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is an anion channel that regulates electrolyte and fluid balance in epithelial tissues. Whereas activation of CFTR is vital to treating cystic fibrosis, selective inhibition of CFTR is a potential therapeutic strategy for secretory diarrhea and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Although several CFTR inhibitors have been developed by high-throughput screening, their modes of action remain elusive. In this study, we determined the… Show more
