Connexin Genotypes in Cystic Fibrosis
Background: There is wide variety in lung disease phenotype for the delta F508 (homozygous) genotype. A leukocyte driven inflammation is most important for the pathogenesis of pulmonary disease in CF. Blood cytokines correlate negatively with pulmonary function in delta F508 homozygous patients. Gap junction proteins might be of importance for …
