A novel tumor necrosis factor-mediated mechanism of direct epithelial sodium channel activation

Published inAmerican journal of respiratory and critical care medicine, vol. 190, no. 5, p. 522-532
Publication date2014
Abstract

Alveolar liquid clearance is regulated by Na(+) uptake through the apically expressed epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) and basolaterally localized Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in type II alveolar epithelial cells. Dysfunction of these Na(+) transporters during pulmonary inflammation can contribute to pulmonary edema.
