TL;DR

Pediatric CF is associated with selective alterations in circulating type 3 and regulatory immune responses, characterized by increased IL-22-producing lymphocyte populations, reduced plasma IL-17 A concentrations, and increased numbers of CD3⁺IL-10⁺ cells.

CFTR mutations and genotypic patterns among cystic fibrosis patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis: analysis from a tertiary care center in Saudi Arabia

CFTR genotype may influence clinical phenotype in CF patients with ABPA, with trends toward poorer growth and lung function in more severe mutation classes, although larger studies are needed to confirm these associations.
