Position-Dependent Stabilization of DNA/RNA Duplexes by Site-Specific Incorporation of LNA Nucleosides [PDF]

Journal of Nucleic Acids
Owing to their enhanced functional properties, 2′,4′-bridged nucleic acids/locked nucleic acids (2′,4′-BNAs/LNAs) are considered promising candidates for antisense oligonucleotide therapeutics.

Tissue pharmacokinetics of antisense oligonucleotides

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
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 [PDF]

Neurology Genetics, 2019
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.

Accessible light-controlled knockdown of cell-free protein synthesis using phosphorothioate-caged antisense oligonucleotides

Communications Chemistry, 2023
Light-activated antisense oligonucleotides have been developed to induce gene knockdown in living cells, however, their synthesis remains challenging and application in cell-free systems is underexplored.
