Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a systemic autosomal recessive disorder due to variants in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene that impair the protein activity causing a defective transport of chloride through the respiratory, biliary, gastrointestinal and reproductive epithelia bringing on the secretion of thick mucus [1]. Here, CFTR is linked to cystic fibrosis.
