3D Automated Segmentation of Bronchial Abnormalities on Ultrashort Echo Time MRI: A Quantitative MR Outcome in Cystic Fibrosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Cystic fibrosis (CF) monitoring relies on computed tomography (CT), but ultra‐short echo time MRI (UTE‐MRI) offers a radiation‐free alternative. However, its clinical adoption is hindered by the laborious and subjective manual analysis, which prevents standardized quantification of bronchial abnormalities.

New era of cystic fibrosis: full mutational analysis and personalized therapy [PDF]
Despite its apparently simple genetics, cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rather complex genetic disease. A lot of variability in the steps of the path from the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR ) gene to the clinical manifestations ...

Modulators of CFTR protein function in the treatment of cystic fibrosis - a literature review [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multi-system genetic disease with an autosomal recessive inheritance mechanism. The breakthroughs in the therapy of patients with CF turned out to be modulators of CFTR protein function.

Advances in bronchiectasis:endotyping, genetics, microbiome, and disease heterogeneity [PDF]
Bronchiectasis is characterised by pathological dilation of the airways. More specifically, the radiographic demonstration of airway enlargement is the common feature of a heterogeneous set of conditions and clinical presentations.

Ion channel expression in human melanoma samples. in silico identification and experimental validation of molecular targets [PDF]
Expression of 328 ion channel genes was investigated, by in silico analysis, in 170 human melanoma samples and controls. Ninety-one members of this gene-family (i.e., about 28%) show a significant (p 0.90 and p 90% in most cases).

The era of CFTR modulators: improvements made and remaining challenges [PDF]
The entry into the clinic of CFTR modulators such as TRIKAFTA has significantly improved life for ∼90% CF patients carrying one or two F508del mutations but challenges remain for rare CFTR mutations and the management of lung infections @SaraOcana1 https:
