Rethinking antisense oligonucleotide therapeutics for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology
Antisense oligonucleotides, which are used to silence target genes, are gaining attention as a novel drug discovery modality for proteinopathies. However, while clinical trials for neurodegenerative diseases like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis have been ...

Antisense PNA accumulates in Escherichia coli and mediates a long post-antibiotic effect [PDF]

, 2007
Antisense agents that target growth-essential genes display surprisingly potent bactericidal properties. In particular, peptide nucleic acid (PNA) and phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers linked to cationic carrier peptides are effective in time kill ...

NEAT1 Promotes Epileptogenesis in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The primary neurological manifestations of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) are intractable epilepsy and intellectual disability. NEAT1 is differentially expressed in TSC‐related epilepsy and influences neuronal excitability by regulating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

BLOC1S1 Attenuates B. Melitensis 16M LPS‐Triggered Autophagy by Spatial Confinement of TDP‐43

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study explores how B. melitensis 16M LPS and BLOC1S1 regulate autophagy in goat spermatogonial stem cells. The 16M LPS is activating AMPK‐dependent autophagy, increasing LC3B‐II/I ratios and lysosomal genes, while Escherichia coli LPS shows no effect.

Viral Systemic Movement Is Enhanced by Alteration of a Structural Phloem Protein by the Insect Vector

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aphids release salivary protein GLD into plants, which induces ROS in the phloem. This leads to the intermolecular disulfide bonds formation among SEO proteins, promoting their transition from the dispersed state to the aggregated state. SEO can interact with CMV CP.

Engineered crRNA Drives RPA‐T7‐CRISPR/Cas14a Cascade for Ultrasensitive Detection of ctDNA PIK3CA H1047R

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The TIDE‐Cas14a system, an integrated RPA‐T7‐CRISPR/Cas14a cascade platform incorporating engineered crRNA mismatches, enables ultrasensitive detection of the PIK3CA H1047R mutation in breast cancer circulating tumor DNA, with a limit of detection as low as 0.01%, surpassing the sensitivity of droplet digital PCR.

Loss of Hepatic Angiotensinogen Attenuates Diastolic Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.

Synthesis, Biological Activity, and Molecular Dynamics Simulations of LNA‐Charge Neutral Linkages for Enhanced Splice‐Switching Antisense Oligonucleotides

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Splice‐switching oligonucleotides are used to treat severe genetic conditions including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, but new chemistries are urgently required to improve their efficacy. In this work locked nucleic acid (LNA) is coupled to different charge neutral DNA backbones which are studied by structural, thermodynamic, and biological methods.

Antisense Oligonucleotides, microRNAs, and Antibodies [PDF]

, 2014
The specificity of Watson-Crick base pairing and the development of several chemical modifications to oligonucleotides have enabled the development of novel drug classes for the treatment of different human diseases. This review focuses on promising results of recent preclinical or clinical studies on targeting HDL metabolism and function by antisense ...
