Cystic fibrosis airway epithelia exhibit a spectrum of ion transport properties that differ from normal, including not only defective cAMP-mediated Cl- secretion, but also in-creased Na+ absorption and increased Ca2"-mediated Cl-secretion. In the present study, we examined whether adeno-virus-mediated (Ad5) transduction of CFTR can correct all of these CF ion transport abnormalities. Polarized primary cultures of human CF and normal nasal epithelial cells were infected with Ad5-CBCFTR at an moi (104) which trans-duced virtually all cells or Ad5-CMV lacZ as a control. Con-sistent with previous reports, Ad5-CBCFTR, but not Ad5-CMV lacZ, corrected defective CF cAMP-mediated Cl- se-cretion. Basal Na + transport rates (basal I,q) in CF airw...
