Fosmetpantotenate (RE-024), a phosphopantothenate replacement therapy for pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration: Mechanism of action and efficacy in nonclinical models

In cells, phosphorylation of pantothenic acid to generate phosphopantothenic acid by the pantothenate kinase enzymes is the first step in coenzyme A synthesis. Pantothenate kinase 2, the isoform localized in neuronal cell mitochondria, is dysfunctional in patients with pantothenate kinase-associated...
