Definition of abbreviations: CFTR, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator; NPPB, 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropyl-amino)-benzoic acid.
The fraction of IBMX/forskolin-inhibited Isc in response to each inhibitor, relative to the total level of inhibition achieved after sequential addition of bumetanide, was used to calculate the % inhibition by each inhibitor.
