The article discusses a study on the systematic review of blood-based biomarkers in cystic fibrosis pulmonary exacerbations (CFPE). The researchers studied a number of blood-based biomarkers including inflammatory cytokines, acute phase reactants and markers of oxidative stress. Results revealed the correlation of C-reactive protein with disease activity and changes in response to CFPE treatment. Several potential biomarkers were identified such as lactoferrin, calprotectin and myeloperoxidase. |
