Impaired PGE(2)-stimulated Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) secretion contributes to cystic fibrosis airway disease
BACKGROUND: Airway mucociliary clearance (MCC) is an important defense mechanism against pulmonary infections and is compromised in cystic fibrosis (CF). Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) epithelial transport are integral to MCC. During pulmonary infections prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production is abundant. AIM:...
