Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most prevalent lethal genetic diseases with over 2000 identified genetic variants in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Pharmacological chaperones such as Lumacaftor (VX-809), Tezacaftor (VX-661) and Elexacaftor (VX-445) treat muta...
In cystic fibrosis (CF), loss of CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-dependent bicarbonate secretion precipitates the accumulation of viscous mucus in the lumen of respiratory and gastrointestinal epithelial tissues. We investigated whether the combination of elexacaftor (ELX), ivacaftor (...
