The Chloride Anion Acts as a Second Messenger in Mammalian Cells - Modifying the Expression of Specific Genes
Background/Aims: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, encoding a cAMP-activated chloride (Cl-) channel. We have previously demonstrated that the expression of several genes can be modulated by the CFTR activity; among them, SRC, MTND4, CISD1, and IL1B. However, the CFTR sign...
