“…In solutions of identical ionic composition, Verdugo demonstrated that extracellular Ca 2+ inhibition of the swelling of CF mucin granules was about 5 times greater relative to mucin granules from normal human airway goblet cells, thereby indicating increased mucin-Ca 2+ affinity in CF granules (72). Consonant with this, electron microprobe analysis has found higher Ca 2+ content in CF airway secretory granules (73). An alkaline pH in Cftr-KO granules and the secretory pathway would be predicted to increase mucin-Ca 2+ affinity by mucin deprotonation (74,75) and increased mucin sulfation (67,76).…”

“…S3 shows that αBTX dose-dependently decreased forskolin-activated chloride efflux in MM39, a cell line derived from the normal human airway glandular epithelium and expressing WT-CFTR (23). It had no effect on KM4, a cell line derived from CF human tracheal glands and homozygous for the ΔF508 mutation (24), and decreased forskolin-activated chloride efflux in KM4*, derived from the KM4 cell line after transduction with the lentiviral vector expressing the WT-CFTR cDNA (25). These αBTX effects were abolished after inhibiting CFTR with the CFTR inh -172 (Fig.…”

“…Emerging evidence suggests that CF lung pathophysiology is linked to dehydration of airway surfaces caused by epithelial ion transport defects (Baconnais et al, 2005;Boucher, 2007;Donaldson et al, 2007). One pharmacologic approach to rehydrate airway surfaces is aerosol ENaC blocker therapy.…”
