Abnormalities in cyclic AMP-dependent chloride secretion and excessive sodium (Na+) reuptake by airway epithelial cells related to cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) insufficiency are thought to improve fluid homeostasis on the airway surface area liquid resulting in dehydration impaired mucociliary clearance and infections [1]. airways boosts Na+ reabsorption reduces mucociliary and bacterial clearance and… Continue reading Abnormalities in cyclic AMP-dependent chloride secretion and excessive sodium (Na+) reuptake
