The impact of CFTR modulators on bone health [PDF]
We are hopeful that CTFR modulation does have a positive impact of bone health, but we have concerns about this study design being used to support the hypothesis.

Personalizing CFTR modulator therapies [PDF]
over 2000 genetic mutations that can cause CF, resulting in many phenotypes. Recently new drugs were developed that treat the disease at the origin of the problem; they enhance the function of the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein which is not functioning properly in CF. These potentially life saving drugs are currently

Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor (ELX/TEZ/IVA) is a new CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) modulator treatment, used over the last few years, which has shown an improvement in different clinical outcomes in patients with cystic ...

Objectives To investigate whether 3D phase-resolved functional lung (PREFUL)-MRI parameters are suitable to measure response to elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) therapy and their association with clinical outcomes in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients ...

Background: Together with impaired mucociliary clearance, lung disease in cystic fibrosis (CF) is driven by dysregulation of innate and adaptive immunity caused by dysfunctional CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator), leading to ...

Promoter Architecture Modulates CFTR Exon 9 Skipping [PDF]
Using hybrid minigene experiments, we have investigated the role of the promoter architecture on the regulation of two alternative spliced exons, cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) exon 9 and fibronectin extra domain-A (EDB). A specific alternative splicing pattern corresponded to each analyzed promoter.

Modulation of CFTR gating by permeant ions [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is unique among ion channels in that after its phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA), its ATP-dependent gating violates microscopic reversibility caused by the intimate involvement of ATP hydrolysis in controlling channel closure. Recent studies suggest a gating model featuring an energetic

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a potentially fatal genetic disease that causes serious lung damage. With time, researchers have a more complete understanding of the molecular-biological defects that underlie CF.

CFTR Modulators: From Mechanism to Targeted Therapeutics
People with cystic fibrosis (CF) suffer from a multi-organ disorder caused by loss-of-function variants in the gene encoding the epithelial anion channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Tremendous progress has been made in both basic and clinical sciences over the past three decades since the identification of the CFTR gene.
