About
Our mission of the NUBPL Foundation is to raise awareness and fund research towards the development of life-saving treatments and a cure for NUBPL, a mitochondrial complex 1 deficiency disorder.
NUBPL is a progressive neurodegenerative disease with zero FDA approved treatments. Patients present clinical symptoms between the ages of 3-24 months, including onset neurological symptoms: cerebellar dysfunction – progressive cerebellar & pons hypoplasia, global developmental delay, inability to walk, ataxia, nystagmus, and speech articulation difficulty.
Researchers are studying NUBPL with the purpose and hope of delivering a treatment breakthrough for patients. Research dollars are difficult to come by for rare diseases. Every dollar donated keeps hope alive for the future. Help us turn hope into action today.
