Antisense oligonucleotides in neurological disorders [PDF]
The introduction of genetics revolutionized the field of neurodegenerative and neuromuscular diseases and has provided considerable insight into the underlying pathomechanisms. Nevertheless, effective treatment options have been limited.

Tissue pharmacokinetics of antisense oligonucleotides
Pharmacokinetics (PK) of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) is characterized by rapid distribution from plasma to tissue and slow terminal plasma elimination driven by re-distribution from tissue.

Antisense oligonucleotides as therapeutic agents [PDF]
Antisense oligonucleotides can block the expression of specific target genes involved in the development of human diseases. Therapeutic applications of antisense techniques are currently under investigation in many different fields. The use of antisense molecules to modify gene expression is variable in its efficacy and reliability, raising objections ...

Antisense oligonucleotides [PDF]
There are few disease-modifying therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases, but successes on the development of antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapeutics for spinal muscular atrophy and Duchenne muscular dystrophy predict a robust future for ASOs in medicine.

Expression of ssDNA in Mammalian Cells
Antisense therapy involves the use of antisense oligonucleotides for altering targeted gene function. However, the low efficiency of cell delivery of antisense oligonucleotides has limited the efficacy of antisense therapeutic approaches.

Polymerase-endonuclease amplification reaction (PEAR) for large-scale enzymatic production of antisense oligonucleotides. [PDF]
Antisense oligonucleotides targeting microRNAs or their mRNA targets prove to be powerful tools for molecular biology research and may eventually emerge as new therapeutic agents.
