Article Synopsis
- - Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder caused by the malfunction of the CFTR protein, leading to increased susceptibility to lung infections, particularly from nontuberculous mycobacteria.
- - The study found that low levels of sphingosine in CF patients contribute to higher risks of infections due to compromised lung function.
- - Restoring sphingosine levels showed potential for reducing infections in CF patients, suggesting a new therapeutic direction for improving their health outcomes.
