Association between cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator genotype and clinical outcomes, glucose homeostasis indices and CF-related diabetes risk in adults with CF.

ABSTRACT: People living with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) homozygous for F508del present more severe phenotypes. PwCF with compound heterozygous genotypes F508del /A455E and F508del /L206W may have milder cystic fibrosis (CF) phenotypes. We compared F508del homozygotes and common compound heterozygotes (F508del and a second pathogenic variant) in adult patients. Nutritional, pulmonary function and glucose homeostasis indices data were collected from the prospective Montreal CF cohort. Two-hundred and three adults with CF having at least one F508del variant were included. Individuals were divided into subgroups: homozygous F508del/F508del (n=149); F508del/621+1G>T (n=17); F508del/711+1G>T (n=11); F508del/A455E (n=12); and F508del/L206W (n=14). Subgroups with the F508del/L206W and F508del/A455E had a lower
