Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis01:23

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

401
Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation,...

Cystic Fibrosis: Management

241
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that predominantly affects individuals of Northern European descent, occurring at a rate of 1 in 3500. It is caused by a genetic mutation in a gene on chromosome 7, most commonly the ΔF508 mutation, that codes for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. This results in thicker mucus secretions and obstruction pathologies in multiple organs, including the lungs and sinuses.
Sinus disease and chronic...

Supercritical Fluid Chromatography01:18

Supercritical Fluid Chromatography

428
Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) provides a beneficial substitute for gas chromatography (GC) and liquid chromatography (LC) for certain samples because it merges the top attributes of both techniques. SFC allows the separation and analysis of compounds that GC or LC does not easily manage. These compounds are traditionally nonvolatile or thermally unstable, making GC unsuitable and lacking functional groups required for HPLC analysis.
SFC utilizes a supercritical fluid mobile phase,...

Regulation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells01:01

Regulation of Hematopoietic Stem Cells

3.4K
All blood and immune cells are produced from the multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by the process of hematopoiesis. However, they all have a limited life span. In addition, many are depleted in immune surveillance or combatting an injury or infection. This makes blood one of the most regenerative tissues. Hematopoiesis helps replenish these blood and immune cells, restoring the body's normal functioning. However, overproduction of blood and immune cells can make them cancerous or...

FISH - Fluorescent In-situ Hybridization02:07

FISH - Fluorescent In-situ Hybridization

22.2K
Fluorescence in situ hybridization, or FISH, was developed in the early 1980s and has quickly become one of the most widely used techniques in cytogenetics. Labeled probes are used to bind complementary DNA or RNA sequences on a chromosome or in a region within a cell. Earlier, the probes could only be obtained by cloning or reverse transcription of a DNA template. Currently, the probe oligonucleotides can be synthesized synthetically. Additionally, with the advancement of optical techniques,...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Infants with cystic fibrosis (CF) screen positive, inconclusive diagnosis (CFSPID) may reclassify to CF. Monitoring sweat chloride levels and CFTR gene variants can help predict outcomes for these children.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Pulmonology
  • Clinical Genetics
  • Newborn Screening

Background:

  • Growing number of infants identified with CFSPID/CF-related conditions (CRMS) due to newborn screening.
  • Lack of standardized follow-up protocols and risk stratification for CRMS/CFSPID infants.
  • Need for prognostic tools to predict reclassification to cystic fibrosis (CF) or CFTR-related disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report on a cohort of children with CRMS/CFSPID who reclassified to CF.
  • To identify potential predictors for reclassification in this population.
  • To evaluate the long-term outcomes and management strategies for CRMS/CFSPID.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective case series of 10 children with CRMS/CFSPID who reclassified.
  • Analysis of sweat chloride concentration trends, CFTR genotypes, and clinical data.
  • Inclusion of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolation and human nasal epithelial culture results.

Main Results:

  • Six percent of CRMS/CFSPID referrals reclassified to CF over 12 years.
  • Eight children carried CFTR variants; seven had initial sweat chloride <30 mmol/L.
  • Average sweat chloride increase was 5.8 mmol/L/year; P. aeruginosa isolated in five subjects.

Conclusions:

  • Reclassification to CF occurs in a subset of CRMS/CFSPID infants.
  • Rate of sweat chloride increase, CFTR genotype, and functional assays may serve as prognostic tools.
  • Further research is needed to establish standardized risk stratification for CRMS/CFSPID patients.
