An Inositol Phosphate Analog, INO-4995, Normalizes Electrophysiology in CF Airway Epithelia

  • Conference paper
Defects of Secretion in Cystic Fibrosis

5. Conclusions

The effects of inositol polyphosphates on ion flux in CF mucosa described here suggest a novel therapeutic approach to the treatment of cystic fibrosis. These studies indicate that transient exposure to an inositol polyphosphate analog, INO-4995, causes long lasting but ultimately reversible changes in therapeutically relevant electrophysiological properties of CF human nasal epithelia. This avoids a major problem encountered with other ion channel regulators that have been advanced as potential CF treatments, limited duration of action.
