CF derived scoring systems do not fully describe the range of structural changes seen on CT scans in PCD

Structural changes identified on CT scans in primary ciliary dyskinesia are not identical to those previously described in cystic fibrosis patients

Elastase Exocytosis by Airway Neutrophils Associates with Early Lung Damage in Cystic Fibrosis Children

Protease elastase exocytosis by airway neutrophils occurs in all cystic fibrosis children, and its cellular measure correlates with early lung damage

Interleukin-1 is associated with inflammation and structural lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis

Our data associates IL-1α with early structural lung damage in CF and suggests this pathway as a novel anti-inflammatory target

Use of a primary epithelial cell screening tool to investigate phage therapy in cystic fibrosis

This study demonstrates the feasibility of utilizing pre-clinical in vitro culture models to screen therapeutic candidates

CrossTalk opposing view: Mucosal acidification does not drive early progressive lung disease in cystic fibrosis

Whether airway mucosal acidification drives early progressive lung disease is controversial

The association between Staphylococcus aureus and subsequent bronchiectasis in children with cystic fibrosis

De novo S. aureus acquisition at age 3 is associated with later bronchiectasis and FEF25-75 in children with CF

Initial acquisition and succession of the cystic fibrosis lung microbiome is associated with disease progression in infants and preschool children

We characterized the lower airways microbiome using BAL samples obtained from clinically stable CF young children who underwent bronchoscopy and chest CT.

Persistent activation of interlinked type 2 airway epithelial gene networks in sputum-derived cells from aeroallergen-sensitized symptomatic asthmatics

Our findings provide new insight into the molecular mechanisms operative at baseline in the airway mucosa in atopic asthmatic with natural aeroallergen exposure

Regional Differences in Susceptibiity of Bronchial Epithelium to Mesenchymal Transition and Inhibition by the Macrolide Antibiotic Azithromycin

Dysregulated repair following epithelial injury is a key forerunner of disease in many organs, and the acquisition of a mesenchymal phenotype by the injured...

DNA Methylation Profiles of Airway Epithelial Cells and PBMCs from Healthy, Atopic and Asthmatic Children

Allergic inflammation is commonly observed in a number of conditions that are associated with atopy including asthma, eczema and rhinitis.
