Here, we present a protocol for the rapid functional screening of gene editing and addition strategies in patient-derived organoids using the deep-learning-based tool DETECTOR (detection of targeted editing of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductanc...
INTRODUCTION: In silico tools capable of predicting the functional consequences of genomic differences between individuals, many of which are AI-driven, have been the most effective over the past two decades for non-synonymous single nucleotide varia...
Epithelial ion and fluid transport studies in patient-derived organoids (PDOs) are increasingly being used for preclinical studies, drug development and precision medicine applications. Epithelial fluid transport properties in PDOs can be measured th...
In clinical routine, the diagnosis of cystic fibrosis (CF) is still challenging regardless of international consensus on diagnosis guidelines and tests. For decades, the classical Gibson and Cooke test measuring sweat chloride concentration has been ...
BACKGROUND: Chest computed tomography (CT) remains the imaging standard for demonstrating cystic fibrosis (CF) airway structural disease . However, visual scoring systems as an outcome measure are time consuming, require training and lack high reprod...
Pre-mRNA splicing is a key controller of human gene expression. Disturbances in splicing due to mutation lead to dysregulated protein expression and contribute to a substantial fraction of human disease. Several classes of splicing modulator compound...
Recurrent and chronic respiratory tract infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients result in progressive lung damage and represent the primary cause of morbidity and mortality. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is one of the earliest bacteria in CF ...

Elexacaftor, tezacaftor, and ivacaftor (ETI) in triple combination improves pulmonary health for people with cystic fibrosis (PwCF). However, its impact on objective measures of sinus disease and health utility is unestablished. To evaluate the imp...
