AICAR decreases the activity of two distinct amiloride-sensitive Na(+)-permeable channels in H441 human lung epithelial cell monolayers

Transepithelial transport of Na(+) across the lung epithelium via amiloride-sensitive Na(+) channels (ENaC) regulates fluid volume in the lung lumen. Activators of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), the adenosine monophosphate mimetic AICAR, and the biguanide metformin decreased amiloride-sensitiv...
