An association has been reported between alterations in fatty acid metabolism and cystic fibrosis (CF). We hypothesized that these alterations are specific for a particular lipid component(s) and are the result of a specific metabolic defect. The dif

The lack of an appropriate animal model with multiorgan pathology characteristic of the human form of cystic fibrosis has hampered our understanding of the pathobiology of the disease. We evaluated multiple organs of congenic C57BL/6J cystic fibrosis

We developed a helper-dependent adenoviral vector for cystic fibrosis lung gene therapy. The vector expresses cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( Cftr ) using control elements from cytokeratin 18 . The vector expressed properly loca

Progressive pulmonary infection is the dominant clinical feature of cystic fibrosis (CF), but the molecular basis for this susceptibility remains incompletely understood. To study this problem, we developed a model of chronic pneumonia by repeated in

The Burkholderia cepacia complex consists of at least five well-documented bacterial genomovars, each of which has been isolated from the sputum of different patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Although the world-wide prevalence of this opportunist p

We evaluated pancreatic enzyme secretory response to secretagogues (cAMP- and Ca2+-mediating) involved in exocytosis and in chloride channel activation in an exon 10 knockout cystic fibrosis (CF) mouse model. Experiments were performed in isolated pa

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CF gene that lead, for the most part, to mislocalization of the protein product, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulatory (CFTR). CFTR is a chloride channel normally situated in the a

We investigated the development of the exocrine pancreas in Cftr -/- mice in comparison with age-matched littermates (Cftr +/+ , Cftr +/- ) up to 100 d postnatally. Controls were weaned either to mouse chow or a liquid diet ; Cftr -/- mice were weane

Mouse models for cystic fibrosis (CF) with no CFTR function (Cftr-/-) have the disadvantage that most animals die of intestinal obstruction shortly after weaning. The objective of this research was to extend the lifespan of CF mice and characterize t

The Cftr (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator) gene codes for an epithelial chloride (C1) channel essential for fluid secretion into the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract and from exocrine glands. Mice lacking CFTR function due t
