Case Study: Cystic Fibrosis Mutations
This case study is a follow-up to the Cystic Fibrosis Case Study where students explore how changes in transport proteins affects the movement of ions, resulting in a build-up of chloride ions and the symptoms of the disease. Students were introduced to the idea that different mutations can cause differences in the transport proteins, but in ...
Case Study: Cystic Fibrosis and Protein Synthesis
Case Study: Cystic Fibrosis and Protein Synthesis Follow-up case to: Case Study: Cystic Fibrosis where students learn how protein channels in the cell membrane are necessary for normal functioning of the cells.
The Clinical Biology of Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator Protein
Biallelic mutations of the cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane regulator ( CFTR) gene resulting in reduced or absent protein function cause CF. 1 The observed clinical syndrome of CF centers on airway disease characterized by inflammation, chronic infections, inspissation of tenacious secretions, bronchiectasis, and eventually premature death.
The genetics and genomics of cystic fibrosis
Genetics is the branch of biology concerned with study of individual genes and how they work whereas genomics is involved with the analysis of all genes and their interactions. Both of these approaches have been applied extensively to CF. Identification of the CFTR gene initiated the dissection of CF genetics at the molecular level.
Case report: Three adult brothers with cystic fibrosis (delF508-delF508
We present three cases in this report. Three adult brothers, homozygous for the delF508 cystic fibrosis mutation, have maintained an unusually preserved clinical condition even though they did not attend a CF Clinic during their childhood, do not attend ...
Maggie's Illness
This directed case study examines the molecular basis of cystic fibrosis to emphasize the relationship between the genetic code stored in a DNA sequence and the encoded protein's structure and function.
Basics of the CFTR Protein
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein helps to maintain the balance of salt and water on many surfaces in the body, such as the surface of the lung. The CFTR protein is a particular type of protein called an ion channel. In the lung, the CFTR ion channel moves chloride ions from inside the cell to outside the cell. Researchers are still trying to learn more ...
Assessing Student Conceptions of Protein Synthesis with a Case Study in
The gene therapy case study on cystic fibrosis has students model protein synthesis and challenges students to apply concepts of protein synthesis, gene expression regulation, and the effects of gene therapy on protein structure and function.

Cystic Fibrosis in Adult Patient: A Case Report
Corresponding author's email: [email protected] Introduction: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a recessive autosomal, progressive and multisystemic genetic disease. Its pathophysiological basis is the mutation in a gene whose function is to code the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) protein, responsible for regulating the transport of chlorine in the apical membrane of ...

Cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited, multiorgan, multifactorial protein misfolding disease with its major pathologic impact being on respiratory function. Digestive, reproductive and other co-morbidities are also common in CF patients; a life-shortening disease that affects around 1 in 2500 babies of Caucasian ethnicity.
CFTR
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is defective in cystic fibrosis (CF). This protein is a channel that sits on the surface of cells and transports chloride and other molecules, such as bicarbonate. The gene that encodes the CFTR protein, which is also called CFTR, is located on chromosome 7. Mutations in this gene lead to CF. Since the discovery of the CFTR gene in ...

Bronchiectasis combined with chronic sinusitis following Celiac disease
Celiac disease is a disease triggered by a protein called gluten. Celiac disease has intestinal and extraintestinal manifestations. Bronchiectasis is a permanent dilation of the bronchi that causes symptoms, such as cough producing a large amount of sputum, recurrent respiratory infections, and breathlessness. In addition, bronchiectasis can present in 60% of cases with chronic rhinosinusitis.
Pulmonary fibrosis may begin in infancy: from childhood to adult
Introduction. Childhood interstitial lung disease (chILD) comprises a diverse group of rare respiratory disorders affecting infants, children and adolescents, some of which result in pulmonary fibrosis.1-3 Mortality in chILD cohorts may be substantial and estimates have varied in prospective studies between less than 1%4 and 30% among infants and 13% overall.5 The outcome of individual ...
