    Title:
    Association of clinical severity of cystic fibrosis with variants in the SLC gene family (SLC6A14, SLC26A9, SLC11A1 and SLC9A3).
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    Cystic fibrosis (CF) manifests with clinical and histopathological variability depending on environmental and genetic factors. Moreover, the genes encoding ion channels[rs3788766(SLC6A14), rs7512462(SLC26A9), rs17235416(SLC11A1) and rs17563161(SLC9A3)] have been insufficiently studied as modifier genes. Then, our objective was associate the variants in the genes of SLC family with 43 CF severity markers.

    Disease-modifying genes and monogenic disorders: experience in cystic fibrosis.
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    The mechanisms responsible for the determination of phenotypes are still not well understood; however, it has become apparent that modifier genes must play a considerable role in the phenotypic heterogeneity of Mendelian disorders. Significant advances in genetic technologies and molecular medicine allow huge amounts of information to be generated from individual samples within a reasonable time frame. This review focuses on the role of modifier genes using the example of cystic fibrosis, the most common lethal autosomal recessive disorder in the white population, and discusses the advantages and limitations of candidate gene approaches versus genome-wide association studies. Moreover, the implications of modifier gene research for other monogenic disorders, as well as its significance for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic approaches are summarized. Increasing insight into modifying mechanisms opens up new perspectives, dispelling the idea of genetic disorders being caused by one single gene.
