 "CF PANCREAS"

Cystic Fibrosis is an incurable disease that is inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a defect in CFTR Protein
CFTR gene therapy may help to correct defective CFTR Protein
Cystic Fibrosis and 65 Roses: The phrase "65 Roses" rhymes with cystic fibrosis. It came into relevance when a 4 year old child, Richard heard his mother saying "Cystic Fibrosis" but heard it as "65 Roses". The phrase is now a registered trademark of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, which has also adopted the rose as its symbol.
