Diseased Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells-Cystic Fibrosis

Cystic fibrosis is a disease that causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in the lungs, digestive tract, and other areas of the body. It is one of the most common chronic lung diseases in children and young adults. The disease is the most common, deadly, inherited disorder affecting Caucasians in the United States. The disease eventually worsens to the point where the person is disabled.
