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 ...

New study suggests why mice with cystic fibrosis mutations can stave off bacterial infections in their lungs. People who have cystic fibrosis are susceptible to bacterial infections in their lungs.

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 ...

In 1997, the National Institutes of Health convened a Consensus Development Conference on Cystic Fibrosis (CF). 1 The Consensus Conference recommended that genetic screening for CF mutations ...

Eric Sorscher and colleagues at UAB developed two different ways to overcome the genetic mutations responsible for cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a hereditary disease caused by mutations in a ...
