Chemical Modifications Rescue Off-Target Effects of RNAi [PDF]
RNAi's specificity has been questioned for some time. Three recent papers show that off-target effects should be considered normal, but one paper also provides insight on how chemical modifications of siRNAs may overcome the problem.

Serotonin-releasing agents with reduced off-target effects
Abstract Increasing extracellular levels of serotonin (5-HT) in the brain ameliorates symptoms of depression and anxiety-related disorders, e.g. social phobias and post-traumatic stress disorder. Recent evidence from preclinical and clinical studies established the potential of drugs inducing the release of 5-HT via the 5-HT-transporter ...

Seed and non-seed region-dependent off-target effect analyses for siVIM-270 and siVIM-805.
(A, B) Expression profiles of off-target genes with 3’UTR sequences that perfectly match the corresponding siRNA seed region (i.e. off-targets) were compared to genes without such sequence. (C, D) The correlation between GC content in all the subsections

Comparative Drug Response Profiling in Neuroblastoma Cell Lines and Patient‐Derived Tumor Organoids
ABSTRACT High‐risk neuroblastoma remains a leading cause of pediatric cancer mortality, and improved preclinical models are needed to guide therapeutic developments. We screened seven high‐risk neuroblastoma cell lines and three patient‐derived tumor organoids with 528 compounds alongside bone marrow controls, and compared them with external datasets ...

A computational study of off-target effects of RNA interference [PDF]
RNA interference (RNAi) is an intracellular mechanism for post-transcriptional gene silencing that is frequently used to study gene function. RNAi is initiated by short interfering RNA (siRNA) of approximately 21 nt in length, either generated from the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) by using the enzyme Dicer or introduced experimentally.

Off-target evaluation of polyamide 2.
(A) Correlations between changes in expression (logFC) after treatment of 10 nM of polyamide 2 against DMSO across ME180, CaSki and SiHA cells; numerical values above each pairing indicate the pairwise Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient.

Predicting unintended effects of drugs based on off-target tissue effects [PDF]
Unintended effects of drugs can be caused by various mechanisms. Conventional analysis of unintended effects has focused on the target proteins of drugs.

ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Deviation from target debt ratio, cash flow imbalance and capital structure adjustment [PDF]
Most of capital structure researches have been conducted on the two dominant theories: trade-off and pecking order. Based on the trade-off theory, every firm has a target capital structure, while pecking order theory assumes that there is no target ...

Off-Target Cannabinoid Effects Mediated by GPR55 [PDF]
Given the vast therapeutic potential of the endocannabinoid system, the revelation of a novel cannabinoid-sensitive target was treated with great excitement. The orphan G-protein coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) was initially touted as a novel cannabinoid target in early industrial patent literature.
