Thiocyanate systemÂ
The immune system serves an essential role in protecting the lungs from chronic infection. In numerous diseases, including cystic fibrosis, the immune system attempts to defend the airways against multiple infections. According to recent laboratory research, the thiocyanate system is efficacious. The creation of an analogue of this thiocyanate molecule that can prevent chronic infection and inflammation associated with a limited lifespan is the subject of ongoing research.
