title: Beta agonist regulation of sodium transport in fetal lung epithelium: roles of cell volume, cytosolic chloride and protein tyrosine kinase.
abstract: 1) A beta agonist stimulated Na+ transport and decreased the intracellular Cl concentration ([Cl]c) associated with cell shrinkage via an increase in cytosolic cAMP level by activating adenylate cyclase in rat fetal distal lung epithelial (FDLE) cells. 2) Lowering [Cl-]c activated a 28-pS nonselective cation (NSC) channel by elongating the open time of the channel. 3) cAMP signals were converted to a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK)-mediated signal. 4) The PTK-mediated signal was involved in the cAMP-stimulated Na+ transport in rat FDLE cells.
