Answers from Peter C. Amadio, M.D. Probably not. When used alone, carpal tunnel exercises aren't likely to relieve symptoms, such as pain and numbness. And they don't replace other carpal tunnel treatments, such as surgery, behavior modification or wrist splints.
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.
The changes in epithelial cell function which cause the abnormal cellular secretions in CF are the result of an abnormal cell membrane protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR). The CFTR abnormality results from a defective gene on human chromosome 7.he changes in epithelial cell function which cause the abnormal cellular secretions in CF are the result of an abnormal cell membrane protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR).
