Abstract excerpt
Previously, we found that the University of North Carolina cystic fibrosis (UNC-CF) mouse had more severe experimental acute pancreatitis (AP) than wild-type (WT) mice characterized by exuberant pancreatic inflammation and impaired acinar apoptosis. Because exon 10 CFTR gene mutations exhibit different phenotypes in tissues such as the mouse lung, we tested the hypothesis that DeltaF508-CF mice also develop...
