Disruption of Interleukin-1β Autocrine Signaling Rescues Complex I Activity and Improves ROS Levels in Immortalized Epithelial Cells with Impaired Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) Function [PDF]
Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) have elevated concentration of cytokines in sputum and a general inflammatory condition. In addition, CF cells in culture produce diverse cytokines in excess, including IL-1B. We have previously shown that IL-1B, at low

TAS2R38 is a novel modifer gene in patients with cystic fbrosis [PDF]
The clinical manifestation of cystic fbrosis (CF) is heterogeneous also in patients with the same cystic fbrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) genotype and in afected sibling pairs.

Reproductive system status and the algorithm to solve fertility issues in men with cystic fibrosis
Rationale: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common hereditary disease related to the CFTR gene mutations and characterized by progression and multiple system involvement (primarily of the digestive tract and / or pulmonary system).

USO DE EXACAFTOR/ TEZACAFTOR /IVACAFTOR EN PACIENTES CON FIBROSIS QUÍSTICA POST-TRASPLANTE PULMONAR
El uso de moduladores de CFTR en pacientes con fibrosis quística post trasplante pulmonar es un tema todavía controversial. Varias publicaciones reportan los beneficios del modulador elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor en los síntomas extrapulmonares de la ...

Modulator Therapy for Cystic Fibrosis: An Exploration of Current Research [PDF]
Developing a drug therapy that addresses the root cause of cystic fibrosis (CF) by increasing CFTR protein levels has long been a research challenge. After genetic therapy failed because a suitable delivery system could not be found, researchers began ...

Strategies against nonsense: oxadiazoles as translational readthrough-inducing drugs (TRIDs) [PDF]
This review focuses on the use of oxadiazoles as translational readthrough-inducing drugs (TRIDs) to rescue the functional full-length protein expression in mendelian genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations.

RNA binding proteins PTBP1 and HNRNPL regulate CFTR mRNA decay
Background: CFTR nonsense alleles generate negligible CFTR protein due to the nonsense mutation: 1) triggering CFTR mRNA degradation by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), and 2) terminating CFTR mRNA translation prematurely.

Intracellular Chloride Concentration Changes Modulate IL-1β Expression and Secretion in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cultured Cells [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, which encodes a cAMP‐regulated chloride channel. Several cellular functions are altered in CF cells. However, it is not clear how the CFTR failure induces those alterations.
