Cystic Fibrosis Gene Therapy - Not As Easy as We Thought

The goal of cystic fibrosis gene therapy is to deliver genetic code for Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) to lung epithelial cells. If a sufficient number of epithelial cells start producing functional CFTR protein, chloride ion transport and mucus clearing mechanisms in lungs will be restored

I feel there is so much more that could be said concerning this. In 2016 they did manage to partially restore CFTR function to knock out mice. There are lots more issues with mRNA therapy than those listed here. It's also not true that carriers don't suffer. Carrier status of certain mutations is strongly linked to COPD for example. Lastly , what about therapies such as curcumin? These are known to improve both folding and transportation of the protein to the cell membrane.

I in 4 chance of having a CF child if you are both carriers. Many carriers of the gene are now deciding to have IVF.
