Beginning Quiz

Famous people with cystic fibrosis Albert Einstien Bob Flanagan Alice Martineau

Symptoms More than 1,400 mutations Salty skin Constant infection of the lung area Salty Skin thickened mucus & phlegm Wheezing & Coughing Poor nutrient absorbtion (equals poor growth)

Later Symptons Polyps Clubbing of the fingers Infertility

causes Two defective genes Inherited Both parents need to be carriers More than 1,400 mutations

How does it affect the lungs Protein CFTR-Cystic Fibrosis conductance Transmembrane Regulator Defective gene doesn’t do its job Clogs lungs with mucus Causes other infections

Percentage of infection A.) Both parents are CF carriers 25% chance unaffected, 50% chance unaffected carrier, 25% chance affected B.) One parent is a CF carrier and one parent has CF; 50% chance affected (CF), 50% chance unaffected carrier C.) One parent has CF and one is a noncarrier; 100% chance unaffected carrier D.) one parent is a carrier and one is a noncarrier; 50% chance unaffected (no CF, no carrier), 50% chance unaffected carrier.

Treatments Airway clearance techniques Mucus thinners Antibiotics Bronchodilators Special diet and vitamins Lung transplant

People Affected Most common are caucasians Affects all races About 30,000 children and adults are diagnosed 10 million Americans are Carriers one of every 3,500 live births 1,000 new diagnoseses each year

When it Appears Born with it Can show up and be diagnosed at any time 80% are age 3 10% are age 18

How is it diagnosed Sweat test- high chloride Genetic test- blood or cells tested. Newborn screening Nasal potential difference test

Life Expectancy Average 37 years
