Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Knowledge about the abundance and distribution of CFTR protein glycoforms in native lung tissue is scarce. For upcoming studies with correctors and potentiators for CFTR it is important to get more information about mutant CFTR protein biochemistry. Target for novel treatment is the most afflicted organ in cystic fibrosis (CF), the lung. METHODS: Lung tissue sampled from patients with CF and...
