A novel role of protein tyrosine kinase2 in mediating chloride secretion in human airway epithelial cells.

Ca(2+) activated Cl(-) channels (CaCC) are up-regulated in cystic fibrosis (CF) airway surface epithelia. The presence and functional properties of CaCC make it a possible therapeutic target to compensate for the deficiency of Cl(-) secretion in CF epithelia. CaCC is activated by an increase in cyto...
