- Mutations p.Gly542X and c.371del
- Hello, Our daughter (soon 2½ years) was diagnosed to have CF following a Newborn screening test. After investigation of the CFTR gene she was diagnosed to be compound heterozygous for mutations p.Gly542X (mutation from her father) and c.371del (mutation from her mother). What do you know about ...

- Hello, May I ask you whether regarding the current level of research (+ 1900 identified mutations and the importance of modifier genes) a study on the mutation and modifier genes that parents passed, would not be a source of useful information for the development of a treatment adapted to the ...

- Intermediate sweat test
- Hello, I ask myself a lot of questions after reading one of your answers to a subject. You said in this response that the sweat test should be less than 30 µmol/l. My 16-months-old daughter has CF (diagnosed at 1 month) with a DF508 mutation and another mutation of class 5 G3272-26A and a sweat ...

- Monozygote twin - CF testing
- Without any history of CF in our families, we decided for my husband to get tested for 89% of the CF mutations. Given the fact that he has a monozygote twin, who does not have children yet, we believe that, due to almost identical DNA, the genetic testing will cover him as well. Is this true? Can ...

- I wish to have a second child. I was tested for 90% of the CF mutations and I was found to be heterozygote for c.443T>C. I do not carry any other mutations. Can I start trying to have a child, or must my husband get tested as well. There is no family history. Thank you!

- Non pathogenic polymorphisms
- My husband was tested for 89& of the CF mutations and no pathogenic mutation was detected. However, three non pathogenic polymorphisms were detected. Why are they in the report, since they do not cause CF? What is their role?
