siRNA design software for a target gene-specific RNA interference
RNA interference (RNAi) is the mechanism through which small interfering RNA (siRNA) induces sequence-specific posttranscriptional gene silencing. RNAi is commonly recognized as a powerful tool not only for functional genomics but also for therapeutic ...

Oncogenesis: An “Off-Target” Effect of Radiofrequency Ablation [PDF]
To compare hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development after radiofrequency (RF) ablation, partial surgical hepatectomy, and a sham operation and to inhibit HCC recurrence after RF ablation in a mouse model of spontaneously forming HCC in the setting of chronic inflammation (ie, the MDR2 knockout model).Animal experiments were performed according to an ...

Thermodynamic control of small RNA-mediated gene silencing
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are crucial regulators of posttranscriptional gene silencing, which is referred to as RNA interference (RNAi) or RNA silencing.

Off‐target effects of engineered nucleases [PDF]
Recent advances in gene editing with engineered nucleases have transformed our ability to manipulate the genome from diverse organisms for applications ranging from biomedical research to disease treatment. A major complication with these engineered nucleases is the binding of the nuclease to unintended genomic sites that share sequence homology with ...

Off-target effects of siRNA specific for GFP [PDF]
Gene knock down by RNAi is a highly effective approach to silence gene expression in experimental as well as therapeutic settings. However, this widely used methodology entails serious pitfalls, especially concerning specificity of the RNAi molecules.We tested the most widely used control siRNA directed against GFP for off-target effects and found that
