Nanomolar-potency 'co-potentiator' therapy for cystic fibrosis caused by a defined subset of minimal function CFTR mutants. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Available CFTR modulators provide no therapeutic benefit for cystic fibrosis (CF) caused by many loss-of-function mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride channel, including N1303K. We previously introduced the

Proliferative activity of antigen-specific CD154+ T cells against bacterial and fungal respiratory pathogens in cystic fibrosis decreases after initiation of highly effective CFTR modulator therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Background: Together with impaired mucociliary clearance, lung disease in cystic fibrosis (CF) is driven by dysregulation of innate and adaptive immunity caused by dysfunctional CFTR (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator), leading to ...

Determining the Minimal Clinically Important Difference of the 40‐Item Smell Identification Test in People With Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and olfactory dysfunction (OD) are highly prevalent among people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF) and negatively impact quality of life. The 40‐item Smell Identification Test (SIT) is widely used to assess psychophysical olfaction, but a CF‐specific minimal clinically important difference (MCID) has not been ...

Impact of elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor in lung transplantation for cystic fibrosis in the United States

open access: yesJHLT Open
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive condition leading to progressive lung disease and often necessitating lung transplantation. Historically, CF has been one of the leading indications for lung transplants in the United States. The

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

open access: yes, 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 (

Long‐term impact of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/ivacaftor on pulmonary, nutritional and metabolic outcomes in homozygous F508del cystic fibrosis patients: A real‐world cohort study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) has markedly improved cystic fibrosis (CF) outcomes. However, its long‐term impact on nutrition, metabolism and liver health remains underexplored. We assessed 30‐month changes in pulmonary, nutritional, metabolic and inflammatory markers in people with CF (PwCF) homozygous for F508del.

Cystic fibrosis-related diabetes in the era of modern treatment using CFTR modulators in pediatric patients—a systematic review

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundCystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) is a common comorbidity in cystic fibrosis (CF), particularly in the pediatric population. As cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulators (CFTRm) become widely used, there is growing ...

Farmacogenética en Fibrosis Quística. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
La fibrosis quística (a partir de ahora referida como FQ) fue descrita por primera vez en 1936 como una entidad separada. También recibía el nombre de “mucoviscidosis” debido a la acumulación de espesas secreciones mucosas que bloqueaban las vías aéreas,

Comparison of Single‐Breath and Multi‐Breath Xe‐MRI in the Longitudinal Assessment of Treatment in Children With Cystic Fibrosis

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a current standard therapy for pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple‐breath washout 129Xe MRI (MBW Xe‐MRI) is improved following 1 month of treatment. However, the utility of MBW Xe‐MRI over extended ETI treatment and its comparison to single‐breath Xe‐MRI and pulmonary function tests ...

Novel reaction to new cystic fibrosis medication Trikafta

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2021
We present a novel case of an urticaria multiforme‐type drug reaction to the new cystic fibrosis medication Trikafta (elexacaftor + tezacaftor + ivacaftor).
