From the authors: “This is the first study to examine the mechanisms of glucocorticoid, serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1, and nongenomic kinase signaling of CFTR in the native intestine. We identified unique and druggable intestine-specific factors of the pathway that are targets for treating stress-induced diarrhea.”
This study is highlighted as one of August’s “best of the best” as part of the American Physiological Society’s APSselect program.
