Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a defect in the cyclic AMP-regulated chloride channel CFTR, that affects the functionality of multiple systems. The disease is mainly characterized by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and abnormal sweat gland function. This work presents recent studies intended to find a pharma-cological treatment of this inherited severe disease.
