Effect of CFTR Modulators on Oxidative Stress and Autophagy in Non-CFTR-Expressing Cells. [PDF]
The triple combination therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF), including elexacaftor, tezacaftor and ivacaftor (ETI or Trikafta), has been shown to improve lung function and reduce pulmonary exacerbations, thereby enhancing the quality of life for most CF patients.

The ABCC6 transporter : what lessons can be learnt from other ATP-binding cassette transporters? [PDF]
ABC transporters represent a large family of ATP-driven transmembrane transporters involved in uni- or bidirectional transfer of a large variety of substrates.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is most commonly caused by the ΔF508 mutation in the CFTR gene, leading to misfolding and degradation of the CFTR protein. Although CFTR modulators such as elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) provide clinical benefit, their ...

Newborn screening for cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Since the late 1970s when the potential of the immunoreactive trypsinogen assay for early identification of infants with cystic fibrosis was first recognised, the performance of newborn blood spot screening (NBS) has been continually assessed and its use

CFTR Modulators: The Changing Face of Cystic Fibrosis in the Era of Precision Medicine
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a lethal inherited disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, which result in impairment of CFTR mRNA and protein expression, function, stability or a combination of these.

The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor regulates human fetal lung development via CFTR [PDF]
Optimal fetal lung growth requires anion-driven fluid secretion into the lumen of the developing organ. The fetus is hypercalcemic compared to the mother and here we show that in the developing human lung this hypercalcaemia acts on the extracellular ...

Role of the SLC26A9 chloride channel as disease modifier and potential therapeutic target in cystic fibrosis [PDF]
The solute carrier family 26, member 9 (SLC26A9) is an epithelial chloride channel that is expressed in several organs affected in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) including the lungs, the pancreas, and the intestine. Emerging evidence suggests SLC26A9

Diagnosis and management of CRMS/CFSPID and cystic fibrosis (CF) with mild phenotypes remains challenging, and this extends to expanding practice with the use of CFTR modulators.
