Antiviral defenses are diminished at birth in cystic fibrosis pig airways

Saturday, August 1, 2026
Jennifer A Bartlett
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings indicate a reduced effectiveness of antiviral host defense at birth in the CF pig model and suggest that this phenotype is not driven solely by altered airway epithelial cell function. These results highlight a likely contribution of early life viral infections in initiating CF lung disease.
