Munkonge F, Alton EWFW, Andersson C, Davidson H, Dragomir A, Edelman A, Farley R, Hjelte L, McLachlan G, Stern M, Roomans GMet al., 2004, Measurement of halide efflux from cultured and primary airway epithelial cells using fluorescence indicators., J Cyst Fibros, Vol: 3 Suppl 2, Pages: 171-176, ISSN: 1569-1993

The use of the halide-sensitive fluorescent probes (6-methoxy-N-(-sulphopropyl)quinolinium (SPQ) and N-(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-6-methoxyquinolinium bromide (MQAE)) to measure chloride transport in cells has now been established as an alternative to the halide-selective electrode technique, radioisotope efflux assays and patch-clamp electrophysiology. We report here procedures for the assessment of halide efflux, using SPQ/MQAE halide-sensitive fluorescent indicators, from both adherent cultured epithelial cells and freshly obtained primary human airway epithelial cells. The procedure describes the calculation of efflux rate constants using experimentally derived SPQ/MQAE fluorescence intensities and empirically derived Stern-Volmer calibration constants. These fluorescence methods permit the quantitative analysis of CFTR function.

Over the last decade, three groups within the United Kingdom (Edinburgh, Oxford, and Imperial College, London) have undertaken key studies in the development of clinical gene therapy for cystic fibrosis. In 2001, catalyzed by the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, these groups came together to form the United Kingdom Cystic Fibrosis Gene Therapy Consortium. The Consortium has removed duplication and competition, developed core facilities playing to the respective strengths of the centers, and introduced the joint strategy described in this article. This is driven by a clinical trial program, with a product pipeline and the necessary development of novel preclinical and human assays. The program is milestone-related, has a structure that lies between the pharmaceutical industry and academia, and has as its endpoint negotiations with industry to undertake a phase III clinical trial of the identified product.
