Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common life-threatening autosomal recessive disease. CF is caused by mutations in the CFTR gene that encodes an anionic channel, which is expressed in epithelial cells. The most common genetic variant is F508del, its allelic frequency in the Russian Federation 52.81% (2017). This variant belongs to class II, leads to incorrect folding of the CFTR protein and its premature degradation. Currently, the effectiveness of target therapy can be individually evaluated by forskolin-induced swelling (FIS) assay on intestinal organoids obtained from CF patients with different genotypes.
