| cystic fibrosis |
In the western world the most frequently determined genetic illness (autosomal recessive inherited). The gene for a chloride channel (CFTR) is affected, whose function is then limited and leads to mucilaginization, particularly in the respiratory tract. Secondary infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequently result from that. Other organs are also affected (intestine, pancreas). The quality of life of patients is very restricted and the life expectation currently extends to the age of 30.
