    A Function of R352Q-, S549R-, S549N-, W1282X- (TGA stop-codon in position 1282) and N1303K-CFTR was determined by the halide-sensitive YFP-quenching assay upon treatment with single potentiators <t>(VX-445</t> - 2 µM, VX-770 - 3 µM, bDMC and ABBV-974 - 10 µM, and apigenin - 50 µM, 37 ˚ C) or their combinations in CFBE41o- cells ( n = 3). The N1303K -CFTR conformational defects were partially rescued with VX-661 (3 µM, 24 hours, 37 ˚ C). CFTR activity was measured after maximal phosphorylation with forskolin and IBMX as described in Methods. Data are means ± SEM of three independent experiments. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01 by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post-hoc test. B Heat map of the combinatorial profiling was established by calculating the dual potentiator effects, determined by the halide-sensitive YFP quenching assay (A, n = 3), in relation to their theoretical additivity. Combinatorial profiles were subsequently used to cluster compounds by average linkage analysis, and the distance was determined by Spearman’s rank correlation.

    A Representative traces (left) of the I sc of G551D-CFTR in gene-edited (ge) 16HBE cells activated with forskolin (Fsk, 20 μM) and potentiated with VX-770 (3 μM) followed by VX-445 (2 μM) and apigenin (50 µM) or in reverse order. At the end of the experiment, CFTR was inhibited with CFTR Inh -172 (20 μM). Measurements were performed in the presence of a basolateral-to-apical chloride gradient in the presence of 100 μM amiloride. Quantification of the I sc (right, n = 3) shows the contribution of Fsk, VX-770, VX-445, and apigenin to the maximal current, depending on the order of potentiator addition, expressed as a percentage of the forskolin-stimulated WT-CFTR current in 16HBE14o- cells.

B Immunoblot (top panel) of parental 16HBE14o- or 16HBEge expressing endogenous WT- or G551D-CFTR, respectively. CFTR was visualized with 660 antibody, and anti–Na + /K + -ATPase antibody served as a loading control. The empty arrowheads indicate the mature, complex glycosylated CFTR (C-band), the filled arrowheads show the immature, core glycosylated protein (B-band). The relative abundance of the C-band was quantified by densitometry (lower panel, n = 4). C Representative traces (left) and quantification of the I sc (right) in HNE isolated from one patient homozygous for G551D-CFTR upon activation with forskolin (Fsk, 20 μM) and potentiation with VX-770 (3 μM), VX-445 (2 μM) and apigenin (50 μM) expressed as percentage of mean Fsk-induced WT-CFTR currents in HNE from 10 healthy donors.
