PPQ-102 is a potent and selective CFTR inhibitor. PPQ-102, completely inhibited CFTR chloride current with IC(50) approximately 90 nM. Patch-clamp analysis confirmed voltage-independent CFTR inhibition by PPQ-102 and showed stabilization of the channel closed state. PPQ-102 prevented cyst expansion and reduced the size of preformed cysts in a neonatal kidney organ culture model of polycystic kidney disease. PPQ-102 is the most potent CFTR inhibitor identified to date.
