The cause of cystic fibrosis (CF) is a defect in a gene called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. This gene makes a protein that controls the movement of salt and water in and out of the cells in your body.
Pulmonary Exacerbation. CF is characterized by recurrent pulmonary problems like shortness of breath, increased cough and sputum production, fatigue and occasionally hemoptysis, or coughing up of blood. Exacerbations are caused by bacterial or viral infections in the bronchi and bronchioles leading to inflammation.
