Challenges Facing Airway Epithelial Cell-Based Therapy for Cystic Fibrosis

Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene cause the life-limiting hereditary disease, cystic fibrosis (CF). Decreased or absent functional CFTR protein in airway epithelial cells leads to abnormally viscous mucus and impaired mucociliary transport, resulting in...
