The role of CFTR in the control of Cl- currents was studied in mouse kidney. Using whole cell clamp Cl- currents were analyzed in primary cultures of proximal, distal convoluted (DCT) and cortical collecting tubule (CCT) from wild type (WT) and cftr knock-out (KO) mice. In WT mice, forskolin activated a linear Cl- current only in DCT and CCT cells. This current was not recorded in KO mice. In both mice, Ca2+-dependent Cl- currents were recorded in all segments. In WT mice, volume-sensitive Cl- currents were implicated in RVD during hypotonicity. In KO, RVD and swelling Cl- current were impaired but were restored by adenosine perfusion. Extracellular ATP also restored swelling Cl- currents. The effect of ATP or adenosine was blocked by DPCPX. The ecto-ATPase inhibitor (ARL67156) inhibited the effect of hypotonicity and ATP. Finally, in KO mice volume-sensitive Cl- currents are potentially functional but the absence of CFTR precludes their activation by extracellular nucleosides. This observation strengthens the hypothesis that CFTR is a modulator of ATP release in epithelia.
