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

ABSTRACT Ivacaftor is the only cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator modulator approved for infants ≥ 1 month. The elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor combination, approved for children aged ≥ 2 years, has been shown to significantly slow CF progression.

ABSTRACT Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains the third leading cause of death worldwide, and conventional bronchodilator‐based therapies have limited efficacy in preventing exacerbations and disease progression. The 2024–2026 period represents a historic inflection point: three mechanistically distinct agents received Food and Drug ...

Pregnancies in women with rare diseases: Selected maternal and perinatal outcomes
Pregnancies in women with rare diseases carry substantial disease‐related (23.2%) and pregnancy‐specific (25.1%) risks. Complication rates drop markedly when conditions are stable before conception. Abstract Introduction Rare diseases (RD) are characterized by chronicity and may be associated with reduced life expectancy and quality of life.

ABSTRACT Aim Children with cystic fibrosis (CF) face substantial daily treatment burdens and the effects of transmembrane conductance regulator modulators on these have not been sufficiently described. We evaluated changes in treatment burden after elexacaftor tezacaftor ivacaftor (ETI) was initiated.

The endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex (EMC) is an evolutionarily conserved, multi‐subunit transmembrane protein complex crucial to membrane protein biogenesis and cellular protein quality control. This review systematically examines the structure, functions and disease‐associated regulatory mechanisms of EMC across multiple organ systems ...

Potential Relationship Between YTHDF3 and CFTR in Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury
ABSTRACT Myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury (MIRI) is a common pathophysiological process in reperfusion therapy following myocardial infarction. It exacerbates myocardial damage and negatively impacts patient prognosis. This study aims to explore potential regulatory targets and related mechanisms in MIRI.
