Improving the Rate of Sufficient Sweat Collected in Infants Referred for Sweat Testing in Michigan

Global Pediatric Health, 2014
Objective . Sweat collected for testing should have quantity not sufficient (QNS) rate of ≤10% in babies ≤3 months of age. Michigan (MI) cystic fibrosis (CF) centers’ QNS rates were 12% to 25% in 2009. This project was initiated to reduce sweat QNS rates

Mechanisms of endothelial cell dysfunction in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

, 2017
Although cystic fibrosis (CF) patients exhibit signs of endothelial perturbation, the functions of the cystic fibrosis conductance regulator (CFTR) in vascular endothelial cells (EC) are poorly defined.

Collision‐Induced Fragmentation of Oligosaccharides: Mechanistic Insights for Mass Spectrometry‐Based Glycomics

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Structural alterations in oligosaccharide structure are often associated with disease, positioning clinical glycomics an emerging tool for diagnostics. This is most commonly achieved using a controlled collision‐induced dissociation (CID) of larger oligosaccharides into fragments and measuring their mass in a mass spectrometer. Due to the complexity of

Bioactive Thymosin Alpha-1 Does Not Influence F508del-CFTR Maturation and Activity. [PDF]

, 2019
Deletion of phenylalanine 508 (F508del) in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel is the most frequent mutation causing cystic fibrosis (CF). F508del-CFTR is misfolded and prematurely degraded. Recently thymosin a-1 (

Expert Perspective: Diagnosis and Treatment of Castleman Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Summary Castleman disease (CD) is a major diagnostic challenge for Rheumatologists. Unicentric CD (UCD) involves one enlarged lymph node region whereas multicentric CD (MCD) involves multiple enlarged lymph node regions. Both UCD and MCD may exhibit a wide range of symptoms that overlap with other immune‐mediated conditions.

Safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of HSK31858, a novel oral dipeptidyl peptidase‐1 inhibitor, in healthy volunteers: An integrated phase 1, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled, single‐ and multiple‐ascending dose study

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Dipeptidyl peptidase‐1 (DPP‐1) inhibitors have been studied for the treatment of neutrophil‐mediated inflammatory diseases including bronchiectasis, bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of DPP‐1 inhibitor HSK31858 in healthy Chinese volunteers.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Acquisition in Cystic Fibrosis Patients in Context of Otorhinolaryngological Surgery or Dentist Attendance: Case Series and Discussion of Preventive Concepts

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, 2015
Introduction. P. aeruginosa is the primary cause for pulmonary destruction and premature death in cystic fibrosis (CF). Therefore, prevention of airway colonization with the pathogen, ubiquitously present in water, is essential.

Environmental Burkholderia cenocepacia Strain Enhances Fitness by Serial Passages during Long-Term Chronic Airways Infection in Mice [PDF]

, 2017
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an important opportunistic pathogen in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, and has also been isolated from natural environments. In previous work, we explored the virulence and pathogenic potential of environmental B.
