The constant transport of ions across the alveolar epithelial barrier regulates alveolar fluid homeostasis. Dysregulation or inhibition of Na+ transport causes fluid accumulation in the distal airspaces resulting in impaired gas exchange and respiratory failure. Previous studies have primarily focused on the critical role of amiloride-sensitive epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) in alveolar fluid clearance (AFC), yet activation of ENaC failed to attenuate pulmonary edema in clinical trials. Since 40% of AFC is amiloride-insensit
