The Potential Protective Effect and Underlying Mechanisms of Physiological Unconjugated Hyperbilirubinemia Mediated by UGT1A1 Antisense Oligonucleotide Therapy in a Mouse Model of Cyclosporine A-Induced Chronic Kidney Disease

Metabolites, 2022
Cyclosporine A (CSA) is an immunosuppressive drug that has improved transplant survival rates. However, its use is often limited because it is thought to be linked to the development of chronic kidney disease after kidney transplants. This study aimed to

DNA Barcoding‐Enabled Tracking of Lipid Nanoparticles: Drug‐Loading‐Dependent Biodistribution and Tumor Microenvironment Targeting

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, lipid nanoparticles are tracked in vivo using DNA barcodes to determine how varying drug loadings affect their delivery behaviors in mice. A cost‐effective strategy is developed for simultaneously monitoring the biodistribution of a library of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs).

The Dynamics of Compound, Transcript, and Protein Effects After Treatment With 2OMePS Antisense Oligonucleotides in mdx Mice

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2014
Antisense-mediated exon skipping is currently in clinical development for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) to amend the consequences of the underlying genetic defect and restore dystrophin expression. Due to turnover of compound, transcript, and protein,

Correction of Clcn1 alternative splicing reverses muscle fiber type transition in mice with myotonic dystrophy

Nature Communications, 2023
In a double homozygous mouse model of myotonic dystrophy type 1, Hu et al. use antisense oligonucleotide correction of myotonia to induce a therapeutic shift from an overabundance of oxidative muscle fibers to mechanically stronger glycolytic fibers.

Suppressing t(4;11) Acute Leukemia by Lipopolymer Nanoparticle Delivery of siRNA Targeting KMT2A::AFF1 with Enhanced Extrahepatic Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new lipopolymer nanoparticle (LPNP) system that efficiently delivers siRNA to leukemia cells. The LPNPs silence the leukemia fusion gene KMT2A::AFF1, induce apoptosis, and decrease leukemia burden in mice. These results demonstrate the potential of LPNPs as a targeted siRNA therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Gene-specific nonsense-mediated mRNA decay targeting for cystic fibrosis therapy

Nature Communications, 2022
The W1282X nonsense mutation in the CFTR gene causes cystic fibrosis by reducing its mRNA and functional protein levels. Here the authors developed antisense-oligonucleotide cocktails that restore CFTR protein function by gene-specific stabilization of ...
