CF pathophysiology is hallmarked by excessive inflammation and the inability to efficiently resolve lung infections contributing to major morbidly and eventually the mortality of patients with this disease. Macrophages are major players in lung homeostasis through their diverse contributions to both innate and adaptive immune networks. The setting of macrophage function and activity in CF is multifaceted encompassing response to the unique environmental cues in the CF lung, as well as the intrinsic changes resulting from CFTR dysfunction. The complexity is further enhanced with the identification of modifier genes, which modulate the CFTR contribution to disease resulting in epigenetic and transcriptional shifts in macrophage phenotype. This review focuses on the contribution of macrophages to lung homeostasis overviewing the diverse literature and the varied perspectives on the role of these immune guardians in CF.
