Journal ArticleDOI

Association of cystic fibrosis with abnormalities in fatty acid metabolism.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors determined whether humans with mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene have a similar fatty acid defect in tissues expressing CFTR.
Journal ArticleDOI

A membrane lipid imbalance plays a role in the phenotypic expression of cystic fibrosis in cftr(-/-) mice.

TL;DR: It is suggested that certain phenotypic manifestations of CF may result from remediable alterations in phospholipid-bound arachidonic acid and DHA levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of rat intestinal fatty acid-binding protein in Escherichia coli. Purification and comparison of ligand binding characteristics with that of Escherichia coli-derived rat liver fatty acid-binding protein.

TL;DR: In this article, the ability of I- and L-FABP to bind fatty acids of different chain length and degree of saturation using a hydroxyalkoxypropyl dextran-based assay was analyzed.
