The effects of hypercapnia on CFTR-dependent HCOb3p-s secretion in human airway epithelia
Hypercapnia is clinically defined as an arterial blood partial pressure of CO2 of above 40mm Hg and is a symptom of chronic lung disease. In renal epithelia, hypercapnia can reduce agonist-stimulated cAMP levels and impair regulation of cAMP-dependent ion transporters. In the airways, elevations in...
