Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) manifest on the nasal epithelial surface of individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) by Na+ hyperabsorption and diminished beta-agonist-induced Cl- conductance, resulting in an abnormal bioelectric phenotype across the...
