Deletion of <i>cftr</i> leads to an excessive neutrophilic response and defective tissue repair in a zebrafish model of sterile inflammation
2019-11-14
Abstract excerpt
Inflammation-related progressive lung destruction is the leading causes of premature death in cystic fibrosis (CF), a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. However, therapeutic targeting of inflammation has been hampered by a lack of understanding of the links between a dysfunctional CFTR and the deleterious innate immune response in CF. Herein...
