Comparative Proteomics of
Chronic Lung Diseases
Cystic Fibrosis
Asthma
COPD
Biomarker Discovery
Cystic Fibrosis is a Chronic Lung Disease
 common lethal recessive
disorders in worldwide
with no effective therapy
 CFTR gene codes for a
Cl- channel protein of
apical epithelial cells
membrane
 chronic lung infection and
inflammation cause 95%
of CF mortality
Asthma and COPD share same
features with Cystic Fibrosis
 COPD is characterized by a
chronic airway limitation to
airflow, due to bronchitis or
emphysema.
 Asthma is characterized by
chronic airway inflammation
and remodelling.
Possible influences of CFTR gene mutations in
COPD and asthma phenotype have been reported
