Delivery of Oligonucleotides: Efficiency with Lipid Conjugation and Clinical Outcome
Oligonucleotides have shifted drug discovery into a new paradigm due to their ability to silence the genes and inhibit protein translation. Importantly, they can drug the un-druggable targets from the conventional small-molecule perspective ...

Effective systemic delivery of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to tissues other than liver remains a challenge. siRNAs are small (∼15 kDa) and therefore rapidly cleared by the kidneys, resulting in limited blood residence times and tissue exposure ...

pH-Sensitive Chitosan–Heparin Nanoparticles for Effective Delivery of Genetic Drugs into Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Chitosan has been extensively studied as a genetic drug delivery platform. However, its efficiency is limited by the strength of DNA and RNA binding.

PARP inhibitor ABT-888 affects response of MDA-MB-231 cells to doxorubicin treatment, targeting Snail expression [PDF]
To overcome cancer cells resistance to pharmacological therapy, the development of new therapeutic approaches becomes urgent. For this purpose, the use of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in combination with other cytotoxic agents could ...

Diarylethene-modified nucleotides for switching optical properties in DNA
Diarylethenes were attached to the 5-position of 2’-deoxyuridine in order to yield three different photochromic nucleosides. All nucleosides were characterized with respect to their absorption and photochromic properties. Based on these results, the most

In vivo delivery of transcription factors with multifunctional oligonucleotides. [PDF]
Therapeutics based on transcription factors have the potential to revolutionize medicine but have had limited clinical success as a consequence of delivery problems. The delivery of transcription factors is challenging because it requires the development

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.
