Popis: | Defective transepithelial electrolyte transport is thought to initiate cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. Yet, how loss of CFTR affects electrolyte transport remains uncertain. CFTR -/- pigs spontaneously develop lung disease resembling human CF. At birth, their airways exhibit a bacterial host defense defect, but are not inflamed. Therefore, we studied ion transport in newborn nasal and tracheal/bronchial epithelia in tissues, cultures, and in vivo. CFTR -/- epithelia showed markedly reduced Cl - and HCO 3 - transport. However, in contrast to a widely held view, lack of CFTR did not increase transepithelial Na + or liquid absorption or reduce periciliary liquid depth. Like human CF, CFTR -/- pigs showed increased amiloride-sensitive voltage and current, but lack of apical Cl - conductance caused the change, not increased Na + transport. These results indicate that CFTR provides the predominant transcellular pathway for Cl - and HCO 3 - in porcine airway epithelia, and reduced anion permeability may initiate CF airway disease. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. published_or_final_version |
