Abstract
Gene expression responses by CF AEC exposed to ETI suggest that in addition to improving CFTR channel function, ETI is likely to increase resistance to bacterial infection by increasing levels of beta defensin 1 (hBD-1). ETI may also reduce lung damage by suppressing MMP10, and reduce airway inflammation by repressing proinflammatory cytokine secretion by AEC cells.
