W34--Restoring Airway Surface Physiology in CF

Saturday, October 25, 2025
10:15 AM - 12:15 PM PDT
Location:Flex A

CFTR function is central to pathogenesis of CF. Airway surface physiology is an aggregate of many components, one of which is CFTR-mediated anion transport. In this session we will explore what aspects of airway surface physiology are restored by CFTR-mediated anion transport and whether certain features may not fully recover with anion transport alone.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the measures of airway surface physiology that are defective in CF.
  • Discuss the role of CFTR ion transport on restoration of aggregate airway surface physiology.
  • Assess what airway surface physiology may not be fully restored despite CFTR function.
