“…Recently, it has been suggested that the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein (CVlrR) is a CI-channel which is regulated by intracellular cAMP (Rich, Gregory, Anderson, Manavalin, Smith, and Welsh, 1991;Bear, Duguay, Naismith, Kartner, Hanratian, and Riordan, 1991;Anderson, Gregory, Thompson, Souza, Paul, Mulligan, Smith, and Welsh, 1991). In addition, a cardiac CI-channel that is activated by 13-adrenergic agonists (Harvey and Hume, 1989;Bahinski, Nairn, Greengard, and Gadsby, 1989;Ehara and Ishihara, 1990;Matsuoka, Ehara, and Noma, 1990) may well be the product of a cardiac CFTR gene (Levesque, Hart, Hume, Kenyon, and Horowitz, 1992). This and other cardiac CI-currents and channels have been recently reviewed (Ackerman and Clapham, 1993).…”
