Newly Discovered Proteins Associated With Cystic Fibrosis
Omschrijving
Researchers have found a highly unusual distribution of two proteins in the lungs and airways of people with cystic fibrosis, a discovery that could be a step in determining how the disease progresses. The proteins, first uncovered as a result of the human genome project, are thought to play a role in the body’s immune system. The discovery is preliminary, but intriguing: Finding out more about the proteins could help sort out the immune system’s role in cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that attacks the lungs and other organs and dramatically shortens life expectancy.
