Previous studies have demonstrated that extracellular ATP is able to activate Ca<sup>2+</sup>-dependent Cl<sup>–</sup> channels which may be important in circumventing the defective cAMP-dependent pancreatic ductal HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> secretion in cystic fibrosis (CF). The present study further investigated the effect of extracellular ATP on the stimulation of HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> secretion across CF pancreatic duct cells (CFPAC-1). Cells were grown in culture plate inserts which enabled the access of a pH microelectrode to the apical compartment. Changes in apical pH upon stimulation by extracellular ATP, as an indication of HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> secretion, were measured. ATP induced a rapid increase in apical pH, which reached a plateau with an averaged pH unit of 0.3 higher than that measured in unstimulated cells. The effect of ATP was concentration dependent. The ATP-induced change in pH could be blocked by apical addition of Cl<sup>–</sup> channel blockers, indicating that activation of apical Cl<sup>–</sup> channel is vital for HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> secretion by the pancreatic duct cells. Together with the previous finding, the present study suggests that HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> secretion may be stimulated in CF pancreatic duct cells by extracellular ATP via a cAMP-independent pathway.
