Pathogenic Variants and Genotypes of the Gene in Russian Men with Cystic Fibrosis and CBAVD Syndrome.

Pathogenic variants cause cystic fibrosis (CF), and CF-related disorders (CF-RD), including bilateral aplasia of the vas deferens (CBAVD). The spectrum of clinical manifestations depends on the genotype. The frequency and spectrum of the variants vary between populations and clinical groups.

Clinical and Genetic Characteristics of a Patient with Cystic Fibrosis with a Complex Allele [E217G;G509D] and Functional Evaluation of the CFTR Channel.

The intricate nature of complex alleles presents challenges in the classification of gene mutations, encompassing potential disease-causing, neutral, or treatment-modulating effects. Notably, the complex allele [E217G;G509D] remains absent from international databases, with its pathogenicity yet to be established. Assessing the functionality of apical membrane ion channels in intestinal epithelium employed the intestinal current measurements (ICM) method, using rectal biopsy material.

L138ins Variant of the Gene in Russian Infertile Men.

(1) Introduction: Pathogenic variants in the (Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator, OMIM: 602421) gene cause Cystic Fibrosis (CF, OMIM: 219700) and CF-related disorders (CF-RD), often accompanied by obstructive azoospermia due to congenital bilateral aplasia of vas deferens (CBAVD, OMIM: 277180) in male patients. The L138ins (c.413_415dup; p.

Clinical and Functional Characteristics of the E92K Gene Variant in the Russian and Turkish Population of People with Cystic Fibrosis.

The pathogenic variant E92K (c.274G > A) of the gene is rare in America and Europe, but it is common for people with cystic fibrosis from Russia and Turkey. We studied the effect of the E92K genetic variant on the CFTR function.
