Genetic attributes of Iranian cystic fibrosis patients: the diagnostic efficiency of CFTR mutations in over a decade

Genetic attributes of Iranian cystic fibrosis patients: the diagnostic efficiency of CFTR mutations in over a decade

Objectives: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most prevalent autosomal recessive disorder among Caucasians. Mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene cause this pathology. We, therefore, aimed to describe the CFTR mutations and their geographical distribution in Iran...
