Abstract excerpt
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a monogenetic disease caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene, which affects multiple organs. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from CF patients and the generation of isogeneic gene-corrected control cell lines enable disease modelling, drug discovery or toxicological studies and therefore the development of CF...
