Blood cells may reveal bone risk in cystic fibrosis
NCT ID NCT03492567
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aimed to find risk factors for osteoporosis in people with cystic fibrosis. Researchers took blood samples to study monocytes, which can turn into osteoclasts—cells that break down bone. They also tested how CFTR modulators affect these bone cells. The study included 25 adults with a specific genetic mutation.
