MicroRNA-9 downregulates the ANO1 chloride channel and contributes to cystic fibrosis lung pathology
Downregulation of the anoctamin 1 calcium channel in airway epithelial cells contributes to pathology in cystic fibrosis. Here the authors show that microRNA-9 targets anoctamin 1 and that inhibiting this interaction improves mucus dynamics in mouse models.
