Good evening.I read about research on the use of the drug Ataluren for the treatment of PCD, a case of point mutations. Does anyone know something about it?

I have never heard of this. Did you ever find out any more?

I found an article that researches have been done on the effect of Ataluren on termination mutations, PCD and CF. Search for PCD And Ataluren. Probably, as soon as some research is done, there is a chance to find a cure, at least for that type of mutation.
