Expert Opin Drug Discov . 2020 Apr; 15(8):873-891. PMID: 32290721
Introduction: Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the (CFTR) gene. The most common mutation, , induces protein misprocessing and loss of CFTR function. The discovery through studies of...

FEBS J . 2018 Apr; 285(11):2104-2124. PMID: 29660229
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers. Its aggressiveness is driven by an intense fibrotic desmoplastic reaction in which the increasingly collagen I-rich extracellular matrix (ECM)...

Mol Pharmacol . 2018 Apr; 93(6):612-618. PMID: 29618585
The most common cystic fibrosis causing mutation is deletion of phenylalanine at position 508 (F508del), a mutation that leads to protein misassembly with defective processing. Small molecule corrector compounds: VX-809...

Stem Cells Int . 2018 Mar; 2018:1203717. PMID: 29531530
We previously found that human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) in coculture with CF immortalised airway epithelial cells (CFBE41o- line, CFBE) on Transwell® filters acquired an epithelial phenotype and led...

Reproduction . 2018 Mar; 155(5):433-445. PMID: 29491124
Sperm motility, a feature essential for fertilization, is influenced by intracellular pH (pH) homeostasis. Several mechanisms are involved in pH regulation, among which sodium-hydrogen exchangers (NHEs), a family of integral...

Sci Rep . 2016 Oct; 6:36016. PMID: 27786259
Goblet cell hyperplasia, a feature of asthma and other respiratory diseases, is driven by the Th-2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13. In human bronchial epithelial cells, we find that IL-4 induces...
