The TAK1→IKKβ→TPL2→MKK1/MKK2 Signaling Cascade Regulates IL-33 Expression in Cystic Fibrosis Airway Epithelial Cells Following Infection by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In cystic fibrosis (CF), chronic respiratory infections result in an exaggerated and uncontrolled inflammatory response that ultimately lead to a decrease in pulmonary function.

Sinus Disease Grading on Computed Tomography Before and After Modulating Therapy in Adult Patients with Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2022
Objectives: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy effects on respiratory function, pulmonary exacerbations and quality of life have been well documented. However, CFTR modulator therapy effects on sinus disease have

Efficient, non‐toxic anion transport by synthetic carriers in cells and epithelia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Transmembrane anion transporters (anionophores) have potential for new modes of biological activity, including therapeutic applications. In particular they might replace the activity of defective anion channels in conditions such as cystic fibrosis ...

Role of the SLC26A9 chloride channel as disease modifier and potential therapeutic target in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
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

Impact of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulator therapies on liver stiffness and liver enzymes: An observational perspective single‐center cohort study

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
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.

Improved Quality of Life in Children With Cystic Fibrosis Who Received Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Modulators

open access: yesActa Paediatrica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Children with cystic fibrosis (CF) face substantial daily treatment burdens and the effects of transmembrane conductance regulator modulators on these have not been sufficiently described. We evaluated changes in treatment burden after elexacaftor tezacaftor ivacaftor (ETI) was initiated.

Anion-transport mechanism of a triazole-bearing derivative of prodigiosine: a candidate for cystic fibrosis therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic lethal disease, originated from the defective function of the CFTR protein, a chloride and bicarbonate permeable transmembrane channel.

Challenges to Assessing the Prevalence of Cystic Fibrosis in the Caribbean

open access: yesPediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cystic fibrosis (CF) is likely underdiagnosed in Caribbean populations due to non‐representative cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) variant screening panels, limited newborn screening programs, and structural healthcare barriers.
