However, the pharmacological effects of ETI on F508del-CFTR remain incompletely defined in vitro. To explore the mechanisms underlying Trikafta's clinical efficacy, we used primary bronchial epithelial cells from F508del homozygous patients and CFBE41o-cells expressing F508del-CFTR. We assessed CFTR maturation, turnover, chloride transport, and thermal stability under various ETI concentrations and treatment durations at physiological temperature using electrophysiology (Ussing chamber, patch-clamp) and biochemical assays. We found that ETI efficacy on F508del-CFTR is strongly influenced by both treatment duration and concentration. Reducing ETI from standard doses, i.e., E (3 µM), T (18 µM), and I (1 µM), to 33%, 11%, 3.3%, and 1.1% decreased function and maturation, but 33% retained most of the corrective effect. After 2 h of treatment, around 50% of the CFTR-dependent current was preserved, unlike in untreated cells. Notably, replacing elexacaftor with bamocaftor further improved F508del-CFTR maturation and function compared with ETI, though it did not affect the rate of current decline over time. These findings highlight the importance of optimizing ETI dose and exposure duration, as both significantly affect F508del-CFTR stability and function. The retained efficacy at reduced concentrations suggests possible individualized dosing strategies, particularly for patients experiencing adverse effects with full-dose ETI.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> Our in vitro study underscores that ETI/BTI's efficacy in improving F508del-CFTR function depends on treatment concentration and duration, impacting the protein's metabolic and thermal stability.

This finding supports dose optimization as a promising strategy to sustain therapeutic benefits while minimizing side effects, offering a personalized approach to treatment for individuals with cystic fibrosis experiencing adverse effects from standard dosing.</p>","PeriodicalId":7593,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.

Previous whole tissue proteomics identified BPD-specific proteome changes and cell type shifts. Little is known about the proteome-level changes within specific cell populations in disease. Here, we sorted epithelial (EPI) and endothelial (ENDO) cell populations based on their differential surface markers from normal and BPD human lungs. Using a low-input compatible sample preparation method (MicroPOT), proteins were extracted and digested into peptides and subjected to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) proteome analysis. Of the 4,970 proteins detected, 293 were modulated in abundance or detection in the EPI population and 422 were modulated in ENDO cells. Modulation of proteins associated with actin-cytoskeletal function, such as SCEL, LMO7, and TBA1B was observed in the BPD EPIs. Using confocal imaging and analysis, we validated the presence of aberrant multilayer-like structures comprising SCEL and LMO7, known to be associated with epidermal cornification, in the human BPD lung. This is the first report of the accumulation of cornification-associated proteins in BPD. Their localization in the alveolar parenchyma, primarily associated with alveolar type 1 (AT1) cells, suggests a role in the BPD postinjury response.
