Mutations in the CEP290 (NPHP6) gene cause severe cilia formation defects and a wide range of ciliopathies, ranging from non-syndromic Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA10) to Meckel syndrome (MKS). Researchers from Medetia SAS and affiliated organizations recently presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of a novel prostaglandin-E2 receptor agonist, MDT-110, as a potential treatment of NPHP6/CEP290-associated phenotypes.
