1 Properties of CFTR activated by the xanthine derivative X-33 in human airway Calu-3 cells. Xanthine CF transmembrane conductance regulator Homo sapiens
2 We performed iodide efflux, whole cell patch-clamp, and short-circuit recordings to demonstrate that the novel synthesized xanthine derivative 3, 7-dimethyl-1-isobutylxanthine (X-33) is an activator of the CFTR channel in Calu-3 cells. Xanthine CF transmembrane conductance regulator Homo sapiens
3 Our results show that manipulating the chemical structure of xanthine derivatives offers an opportunity to identify further specific activators of CFTR in airway cells. Xanthine CF transmembrane conductance regulator Homo sapiens
