Abstract
This Perspectives accompanies an Editorial Focus that summarizes new developments concerning the role of chloride in airway smooth muscle physiology. We provide several observations and mechanistic insights to reconcile recent experimental evidence with existing paradigms concerning chloride channel-mediated effects on airway smooth muscle tone. In addition, we highlight the potentially complex and dynamic nature that chloride currents and membrane potential have on calcium handling and airway smooth muscle contractility.
