Overview

Differentiates endothelial volume-activated Cl- currents from ClC-2; leaves open their vascular roles in vivo.

Structured PICO

P
Population
Endothelial cells from human umbilical vein
I
Intervention
Pharmacological modulators (NPPB, ATP, arachidonic acid, tamoxifen, cytotoxic compounds) and various anions
O
Outcome
Permeation properties and pharmacological modulation of volume-activated Cl- currentssurrogate

Volume-activated Cl- currents in human endothelial cells share permeation and pharmacological properties with similar channels in other cell types, but differ significantly from CIC-2 channels.
