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.

CFTR Modulates Orai1 Dynamics [PDF]
Calcium signaling regulates many cellular processes and is upregulated in cystic fibrosis (CF) epithelial cells. Agonists stimulate Ca2+ release from ER stores and trigger the formation of a complex between the plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+ channel Orai1 and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a primarily endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident protein ...

Precision medicine offers the opportunity to improve the benefit–risk profile of new therapies by prospectively identifying patients most likely to respond or least likely to experience harm; however, its systematic integration into drug development remains inconsistent outside oncology.

Abstract Objectives The efficacy of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)‐modulator therapies in preventing or ameliorating cystic fibrosis liver disease (CFLD) by correcting CFTR in cholangiocytes is not well‐documented. This study aimed to assess liver function during CFTR‐modulators.

Abstract Prime editing, a novel clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‐based technology, fuses a reverse transcriptase (RT) to an engineered CRISPR‐associated protein 9 (Cas9) and uses a prime editing guide RNA (pegRNA)‐encoded template.

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

ABSTRACT In the last decades, critical advancements in research technology and knowledge on disease mechanisms steered therapeutic approaches for chronic inflammatory diseases towards unprecedented target specificity. For allergic and chronic lung diseases, biologic drugs pioneered this goal, acquiring on the way—through the clinical use of monoclonal ...
