Mycobacteriophage–antibiotic therapy promotes enhanced clearance of drug-resistant Mycobacterium abscessus

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Infection by multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium abscessus is increasingly prevalent in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, leaving clinicians with few therapeutic options.

Mummichog gill and operculum exhibit functionally consistent claudin-10 paralog profiles and Claudin-10c hypersaline response

Biology Open, 2021
Claudin (Cldn)-10 tight junction (TJ) proteins are hypothesized to form the paracellular Na+ secretion pathway of hyposmoregulating mummichog (Fundulus heteroclitus) branchial epithelia.

FUNCIÓN PULMONAR EN FIBROSIS QUÍSTICA

Neumología Pediátrica, 2022
La fibrosis quística (FQ) es una enfermedad hereditaria autosómica recesiva, causada por la mutación del gen que codifica la proteína CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator), afecta varios órganos, pero la enfermedad pulmonar es la ...

CFTR Modulator Therapy for Rare CFTR Mutants

Journal of Respiration, 2022
Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common genetic disease among the Caucasian population, is caused by mutations in the gene encoding for the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a chloride epithelial channel whose dysfunction results in severe airway obstruction and inflammation, eventually leading to respiratory failure.

Sinus Disease Grading on Computed Tomography Before and After Modulating Therapy in Adult Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2022
Objectives: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy effects on respiratory function, pulmonary exacerbations and quality of life have been well documented. However, CFTR modulator therapy effects on sinus disease have

Angiotensin(1–7) activates MAS-1 and upregulates CFTR to promote insulin secretion in pancreatic β-cells: the association with type 2 diabetes

Endocrine Connections, 2022
Objective: The beneficial effect of angiotensin(1–7) (Ang(1–7)), via the ac tivation of its receptor, MAS-1, has been noted in diabetes treatment; however, how Ang(1–7) or MAS-1 affects insulin secretion remains elusive and whether the endoge nous level ...

Physiological parameters of Brazilian silverside, Atherinella brasiliensis, embryos exposed to different salinities [PDF]

Neotropical Ichthyology
Information regarding organism changes due to the variation of abiotic factors such as salinity are essential in both ecotoxicological and environmental monitoring studies. For this reason, the Brazilian silverside (Atherinella brasiliensis) embryos were

Vardenafil increases intracellular accumulation of the most prevalent mutant cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CTFR) in human bronchial epithelial cells

Biology Open, 2020
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease characterized by progressive lung and chronic digestive manifestations. We have shown that therapeutic doses of vardenafil, a phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor, corrects CF Transmembrane conductance ...
