Abstract The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) represents the main Cl–channel in the apical membrane of epithelial cells for cAMP-dependent Cl– secretion. Here we report on the synthesis and screening of a small library of nontoxic α- aminoazaheterocycle-methylglyoxal adducts, inhibitors of wild-type (WT) CFTR and G551D-, G1349D-, and F508del-CFTR Cl–channels. In whole-cell patch-clamp experiments of ...
