Abstract

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a fatal, inherited disease found in humans [4] and characterized by buildup of thick, sticky mucus, particularly in the respiratory and digestive tracts. The abnormally thick mucus prevents the pancreas from functioning normally; it often leads to digestive problems and chronic lung infections. Cystic fibrosis is most prevalent in Caucasian individuals, and approximately 1 in every 29 individuals in the US is a carrier for the mutated CF gene. There are an estimated 30,000 reported cystic fibrosis [5] cases in the US, and 70,000 reported cases worldwide, although the international number is undoubtedly low due to underreporting or early deaths.
囊性纤维化。
囊性纤维化(CF)是一种致命的遗传性疾病,发现于人类b[4],其特征是粘稠的粘液积聚,特别是在呼吸道和消化道。异常粘稠的粘液使胰腺不能正常工作;它经常导致消化问题和慢性肺部感染。囊性纤维化在白种人中最为普遍,在美国大约每29个人中就有1人携带突变的CF基因。据估计,美国报告的囊性纤维化病例为3万例,全球报告的病例为7万例,尽管由于漏报或过早死亡,国际数字无疑很低。
