  • cystic fibrosis the luminal border of the airway mucosal cell is unresponsive to cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinase
  • the cells are impermeable to chloride ions and as a result, sodium absorption across the cell membrane is accelerated.
  • the subsequent electrolyte imbalances tend to reduce the level of hydration of the airway mucous, thus contributing to the viscosity of the lung secretions characteristic of cystic fibrosis.
