List of results

In the absence of chloride flow in cystic fibrosis, sodium ions do not flow through ENaC despite upregulation of the ENaC channel, leading to greater salt and water loss. As such, patients' skin tastes salty. A chloride sweat test, which detects the concentration of salt on the patient's skin, is a diagnostic test of CF.atient's skin, is a diagnostic test of CF.)
