Corrective effects on airway epithelial function by human amniotic epithelial cells (HAEC) when treating cystic fibrosis

Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) remains the most common life-shortening genetic disease affecting children. The defective protein product of the affected gene, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), blocks Cl - and water absorption into the airway epithelium resulting in a r...
