Does exposure to cigarette smoke condensate reduce calcium activated chloride channel transport in primary sinonasal epithelial cultures?
CSC affects multiple pathways fundamental to airway ion transport, including both cyclic adenosine monophosphate and calcium activated Cl(-) transport. Inhibition of Cl(-) transport may contribute to common diseases of the airways, such as chronic rhinosinusitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Our study identified a number of sap proteins from soybean that are differentially induced in response to B. japonicum and P. sojae elicitor treatments and a majority of them were secreted proteins.
