Aspiration of acid from the stomach and water from the mouth can cause significant lung injury. Animal experiments suggest that acid entering the lungs is normally neutralized by bicarbonate derived from the plasma. It is hypothesized that this process may be impaired in patients with cystic fibrosis and that some of the airway injury that they experience may be related to this defect. This disease is characterized by abnormalities in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator, which normally conducts bicarbonate and chloride exchange. Evidence is discussed regarding the role of water channels (aquaporins) in transporting water from the airspaces into the vasculature.
