Viral and nonviral clinical trials have established proof-of-principle for gene transfer into the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung. It is currently unknown whether gene transfer efficiency is sufficient ...

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene rearrangements were searched ... Three mutations were found as complex alleles (two or three sequence alterations associated in cis on ...

Cystic fibrosis is caused by hereditary genetic mutations that impair or halt the production of the CFTR protein. The respiratory tract is most severely affected. There, the mucus becomes so ...

and we hope future research could lead to the development of genetic therapy treatments for those with rarer CF mutations too,” said Lucy Allen, a lung biologist and research director at Cystic ...

Despite new medication, cystic fibrosis often leads to permanent lung damage. Working with an international team, researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have discovered that the ...
