Identification of early changes in multiple biomarkers following CFTR modulator initiation in patients with cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Background: There are currently no early parameters that allow prediction of long-term responses to Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) modulator treatment on an individual level.

Chronic rhinosinusitis in the era of CFTR modulator therapy.
Chronic rhinosinusitis is a common manifestation of CF that is associated with impaired quality of life and can be difficult to treat. CFTR modulator therapy has resulted in significant improvements in lower respiratory and nutritional outcomes for ...

Laboratory Tools to Predict CFTR Modulator Therapy Effectiveness and to Monitor Disease Severity in Cystic Fibrosis. [PDF]
The implementation of cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator drugs into clinical practice has been attaining remarkable therapeutic outcomes for CF, a life-threatening autosomal recessive genetic disease. However, there

Organic Synthesis and Current Understanding of the Mechanisms of CFTR Modulator Drugs Ivacaftor, Tezacaftor, and Elexacaftor. [PDF]
The monogenic rare disease Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the CF transmembrane conductance (CFTR) protein, an anion channel expressed at the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells.

CFTR Modulator Therapies: Potential Impact on Airway Infections in Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding for the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein, expressed on the apical surface of epithelial cells.

CFTR Modulator Response in Nasal Organoids Derived from People with Cystic Fibrosis [PDF]
Despite the progressive extension of CFTR variant eligibility to the triple combination of elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI), most rare CFTR pathogenic variants remain ineligible for CFTR modulators.

CFTR modulator therapy alters plasma sphingolipid profiles in people with cystic fibrosis
BACKGROUND Sphingolipids, in particular ceramides, play an important role in the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. Ceramides seem to be dysregulated in people with CF (PWCF): An elevated ratio of ceramides C16Cer/ C24Cer has been linked ...
