CFTR regulation of ENaC has been described in the colon in humans [ 37 ] and in cftr knockout mice [ 37 ] . Co-localization of CFTR and ENaC suggests that direct protein-protein interactions allow CFTR to closely regulate the activity of this channel [ 39 40 ] . Our results suggest that knockout of CFTR leads to an analogous increase in expression and function of IBAT.
An alternative mechanism for the upregulation of IBAT in cystic fibrosis is that CFTR acts as a negative regulator of IBAT, as it does for the epithelial sodium channel [ 36 ] . As IBAT is a sodium-dependent apical membrane transporter, it might be regulated by CFTR, as is the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) present in the apical membrane of the ileal enterocyte.
