Cystic lung disease (CLD) is a group of lung disorders characterized by the presence of multiple cysts, defined as air-filled lucencies or low-attenuating areas, bordered by a thin wall (usually < 2 mm). The recognition of CLDs has increased with the widespread use of computed tomography. This article addresses the mechanisms of cyst formation and the diagnostic approaches to CLDs. A number of ...
Chronic lung disease determines the morbidity and mortality of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. The pulmonary immune response in CF is characterized by an early and non-resolving activation of the innate immune system, which is dysregulated at several levels. Here we provide a comprehensive overview of innate immunity in CF lung disease, involving (i) epithelial dysfunction, (ii) pathogen sensing...
Among patients who have cystic fibrosis (CF), lung disease is a significant contributor to morbidity. From a clinical perspective, the link between malnutrition and lung dysfunction in CF is well established; however, the causal relationship remains unclear. Nutritional intervention for CF patients is predicated on the hypothesis that improved nutritional status improves pulmonary function. Whi...
Gene therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) has been the subject of intense research over the last twenty-five years or more, using both viral and liposomal delivery methods, but so far without the emergence of a clinical therapy. New approaches to CF gene therapy involving recent improvements to vector systems, both viral and non-viral, as well as new nucleic acid technologies have led to renewed in...
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine whether plasma biomarkers reflect changes in lung function and respiratory exacerbations associated with CF lung disease. METHODS Plasma human leukocyte elastase/alpha1 antitrypsin complex (pHLE complex) values were measured in 28 adult CF patients and 47 healthy volunteers and correlated with forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and forced vital ...
