ABSTRACT:
This invention relates generally to medical treatment methods. Specifically, the invention relates to methodology for the correction of defective chloride transport by activation of chloride channels of the lung and other epithelia using genetic or chemical modification. These methods relate to the treatment of epithelia with compounds which cause activation of the channel as measured by increased probability (Po) of opening of the channel at physiologically relevant holding potentials. These methods also relate to the treatment of epithelia with gene therapy to introduce chloride channels genes with site mutations which cause activation of the channel as measured by increased probability (Po) of opening of the channel at physiologically relevant holding potentials. These treatments will reduce life-threatening complications frequently found in diseases such as cystic fibrosis. These methods of activation of chloride channels also comprise treatment of chloride channels with amidation reactions.
