Exaluren sulfate
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Exaluren (ELX-02; NB-124) sulfate is an synthetic eukaryotic ribosome-selective glycoside that induces read-through of nonsense mutations, resulting in normally localized full-length functional proteins. Exaluren sulfate is used for the research of cystic fibrosis caused by nonsense mutations.

Exaluren sulfate induces significant premature stop codon read-through with maintained native stop codon fidelity in DMS-114 cells, increasing p53 protein expression and reducing nonsense-mediated mRNA decay of TP53 mRNA[1].
Exaluren sulfate exhibits consistent nonsense mutation read-through activity and efficacy in human bronchial epithelial cells, Fischer rat thyroid cells, and a dual luciferase cystic fibrosis model[1].
Exaluren sulfate induces read-through of the CTNS W138X nonsense allele in human cystinosis fibroblasts, increasing cystinosin protein and CTNS mRNA levels while reducing half-cystine levels[1].

Exaluren (10 mg/kg; s.c.; 7 injections over a 3-week period) sulfate reduces kidney cell cystine levels by 30% in CTNSY226X nonsense mutant mice without overt renal toxicity[1].
