Abstract

Translational research efforts in cystic fibrosis (CF) aim to develop therapies for all subjects with CF. To reach this goal new therapies need to be developed that target multiple aspects of the disease. To enable individuals to benefit maximally from these treatments will require improved methods to tailor these therapies specifically to individuals who suffer from CF. This report highlights current examples of translational CF research efforts to reach this goal. The use of intestinal organoids and genetics to better understand individual assessment of CFTR modulator treatment effects to ultimately enable a better personalized treatment for CF subjects will be discussed. In addition, development of viral vectors and non-viral synthetic nanoparticles for delivery of mRNA, sgRNA and DNA will be highlighted. New approaches to restore function of CFTR with early premature termination codons using nanoparticle delivery of suppressor tRNAs and new insights into mechanisms of airway epithelial repair will be reviewed as well. The state-of-the-art approaches that are discussed in this review demonstrate significant progress towards the development of optimal individual therapies for CF patients, but also reveal that remaining challenges still lie ahead.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Small molecules that restore chloride transport function of mutant CFTR have shown promising clinical results, but their narrow application range, poor improvements in lung function, and side effects limit their utilization.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
