Insights into the kinetics of siRNA-mediated gene silencing from live-cell and live-animal bioluminescent imaging [PDF]
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules are potent effectors of post-transcriptional gene silencing. Using noninvasive bioluminescent imaging and a mathematical model of siRNA delivery and function, the effects of target-specific and treatment-specific ...

Micro-RNA family that modulates fibrosis and uses thereof [PDF]
The present invention relates to the identification of a microRNA family, designated miR-29a-c, that is a key regulator of fibrosis in cardiac tissue. The inventors show that members of the miR-29 family are down-regulated in the heart tissue in response

Delivery of Antisense Oligonucleotides to the Cornea
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are synthetic nucleic acids that recognize complementary RNA sequences inside cells and modulate gene expression. In this study, we explore the feasibility of ASO delivery to the cornea. We used quantitative polymerase chain reaction to test the efficacy of a benchmark ASO targeting a noncoding nuclear RNA, Metastasis ...

Effect of native gastric mucus on in vivo hybridization therapies directed at Helicobacter pylori [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori infects more than 50% of the worldwide population. It is mostly found deep in the gastric mucus lining of the stomach, being a major cause of peptic ulcers and gastric adenocarcinoma. To face the increasing resistance of H.

Delivery is key: lessons learnt from developing splice‐switching antisense therapies
The use of splice‐switching antisense therapy is highly promising, with a wealth of pre‐clinical data and numerous clinical trials ongoing. Nevertheless, its potential to treat a variety of disorders has yet to be realized. The main obstacle impeding the
