Modeling Pulmonary Cystic Fibrosis in a Human Lung Airway-on-a-chip

2021-07-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which results in impaired airway mucociliary clearance, inflammation, infection, and respiratory insufficiency.
