No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal, inherited disorder among Caucasians. Choline is an essential vitamin and as a methyl donor is critically needed to support the normal metabolism. Our previous studies have demonstrated that children with CF have depleted levels of choline. The purpose of this study is to gather data on the status of choline and related metabolites in children with Cystic Fibrosis by age and gender. The hypothesis for this study is that in children with CF, deficiency of choline and related metabolites will increase with increasing age.
