Chloride channels in renal epithelial cells

Chloride channels are found throughout the nephron. Many chloride channels expressed in the kidney have now been cloned. The CIC family of voltage-dependent chloride channels accounts for most of the known renal chloride channels. Unfortunately, relatively little is known concerning their functional...
