The results demonstrated that CFTR staining was decreased in rat airway epithelium under ozone stress. Ozone stress also down-regulated CFTR protein and mrna expression and CFTR chloride current in cultured human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC). These negative effects on CFTR function could potentially contribute to CF-like symptoms in a variety of inflammatory airway diseases. Our results provide support for studies investigating CFTR function in inflammatory lung diseases other than cystic fibrosis. Key words: cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator; human bronchial epithelial cells; ozone stress; airway hyperresponsiveness 9
