Adenine base editing of CFTR using receptor targeted nanoparticles restores function to G542X cystic fibrosis airway epithelial cells
7 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The cystic fibrosis (CF) causing variant G542X harbours a premature translation stop signal in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator ( CFTR ) mRNA. This results in nonsense-mediated decay and loss of functional CFTR protein which leads to defective anion transport and the development of CF disease pathology. Currently available CF modulator therapies cannot be used to treat this...
