 Cystic fibrosis is caused by a defective gene

 Failure to gain weight normally during childhood  No bowel movements in first 24 to 48 hours of life  Salty-tasting skin  wheezing or shortness of breath

 Cystic fibrosis is caused by a defective gene which causes the body to produce abnormally thick and sticky fluid, called mucus. This mucus builds up in the breathing passages of the lungs and in the pancreas, the organ that helps to break down and absorb food.  Most children with are diagnosed by age 2. A small number, however, are not diagnosed until age 18 or older. These patients usually have a milder form of the disease.

 Inhaled medicines to help open the airways  DNAs enzyme replacement therapy to thin mucus and make it easier to cough up  Oxygen therapy may be needed as lung disease gets worse

 In the 1950s few children with cystic fibrosis lived to go to elementary school. Today in research and medical treatments have further enhanced and extended life for children and adults with Cystic fibrosis. Many people with the disease can now expect to live into their 30s, 40s and beyond.
