A non-randomised single centre cohort study, comparing standard and modified bowel preparations, in adults with cystic fibrosis requiring colonoscopy

BMC Gastroenterology, 2019
Background Adults with cystic fibrosis (CF) have been reported to be at five to ten-fold risk (25 to 30 fold risk after solid organ transplant) of colorectal cancer (CRC) than the general population.

Mucus, mucins, and cystic fibrosis

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2019
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is both the most common and most lethal genetic disease in the Caucasian population. CF is caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene and is characterized by the accumulation of thick ...

Epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT): a universal process in lung diseases with implications for cystic fibrosis pathophysiology

Respiratory Research, 2018
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder that arises due to mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator gene, which encodes for a protein responsible for ion transport out of epithelial cells.

A multimodal iPSC platform for cystic fibrosis drug testing

Nature Communications, 2022
Hundreds of mutations in the gene CFTR lead to cystic fibrosis and represent a challenge to developing therapeutics. Here, authors demonstrate the ability of airway cells derived from human iPSCs to model genotype-specific CFTR function as well as ...

The NSAID glafenine rescues class 2 CFTR mutants via cyclooxygenase 2 inhibition of the arachidonic acid pathway

Scientific Reports, 2022
Most cases of cystic fibrosis (CF) are caused by class 2 mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR). These proteins preserve some channel function but are retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

First time identification of Pandoraea sputorum from a patient with cystic fibrosis in Argentina: a case report [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Pandoraea species are considered emerging pathogens in the context of cystic fibrosis (CF) and are difficult to identify by conventional biochemical methods. These multidrug resistant bacteria remain poorly understood particularly in terms of
