Expressivity(2)  
Modifier effect:
Altered severity(1) ,CFTR mediated residual chloride secretion(1)  
Details：
  • Target disease:
    Cystic fibrosis (DOID_1485)
    Effect type:
    Expressivity 
    Modifier effect:
    CFTR mediated residual chloride secretion 
    Evidence:
    Pcorr = 0.0069 
    Effect:
    KRT8, but not KRT18, showed an association with CF disease severity (Pbest = 0.00131; Pcorr = 0.0185) and CFTR mediated residual chloride secretion (Pbest = 0.0004; Pcorr = 0.0069).

    Title:
    An association study on contrasting cystic fibrosis endophenotypes recognizes KRT8 but not KRT18 as a modifier of cystic fibrosis disease severity and CFTR mediated residual chloride secretion.
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    F508del-CFTR, the most frequent disease-causing mutation among Caucasian cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, has been characterised as a mutant defective in protein folding, processing and trafficking. We have investigated the two neighbouring cytokeratin genes KRT8 and KRT18 in a candidate gene approach to ask whether variants in KRT8 and/or KRT18 modify the impaired ion conductance known as the CF basic defect, and whether they are associated with correct trafficking of mutant CFTR and disease severity of CF.
