Abstract

  • Just put an asterisk as the first character to make a bullet point.
    • Put two asterices to make a sub point.
  • Put three single quote marks around text you want to be bold, perhaps for new terminology.
  • Put two single quotes around things that should be italicized.

Introduction

  • CF is a common lethal hereditary disorder caused by a mutation on CFTR on chromosome 7
  • The disorder is characterized by airway and gastrointestinal disease, the lung manifestations dominate
  • The pathogenesis is clearly linked to the lack of CFTR in the respiratory epithelia
  • Symptoms in first decade:
    • Thick mucus, colonization with infectious bacteria, and chronic airway inflammation
  • One approach to prevent respiratory manifestations of CFTR is gene therapy (talked about in abstract)
  • Gene therapy must be carried out in vivo, cannot be done ex vitro
