Fast-track applications : the potential for direct delivery of proteins and nucleic acids to plant cells for the discovery of the gene function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In animal systems, several methods exist for the direct delivery of nucleic acids and proteins into cells for functional analysis. Until recently, these methods have not been applied to plant systems.

A mechanistic pharmacokinetic model for intrathecal administration of antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Intrathecal administration is an important mode for delivering biological agents targeting central nervous system (CNS) diseases. However, current clinical practices lack a sound theorical basis for a quantitative understanding of the variables and ...

Silencing disease genes in the laboratory and the clinic

open access: yes, 2011
Synthetic nucleic acids are commonly used laboratory tools for modulating gene expression and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic. Progress towards nucleic acid drugs, however, has been slow and many challenges remain to be overcome before

Hippo pathway at the crossroads of stemness and therapeutic resistance in breast cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway drives nuclear accumulation of YAP/TAZ, activating stemness‐related transcriptional programs that sustain breast cancer stemness and fuel therapeutic resistance across subtypes, underscoring Hippo signaling as a targetable vulnerability. Figure created and edited with BioRender.com.

Efficient Modulation of Exon Skipping via Antisense Circular RNAs

open access: yesResearch, 2023
Splice-switching antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and engineered U7 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U7 Sm OPT) are the most commonly used methods for exon skipping. However, challenges remain, such as limited organ delivery and repeated dosing for ASOs

Antisense delivery using protamine-oligonucleotide particles [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2000
Protamine, a polycationic peptide (mol. wt 4000-4500), was evaluated as a potential penetration enhancer for phosphodiester antisense oligonucleotides (ODNs). Unique complexes in the form of nanoparticles were spontaneously formed, which we call 'proticles'.

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.
