Oligonucleotide Therapeutics: From Discovery and Development to Patentability
Pharmaceutics, 2022 Following the first proof of concept of using small nucleic acids to modulate gene expression, a long period of maturation led, at the end of the last century, to the first marketing authorization of an oligonucleotide-based therapy.

Use of single-chain antibody derivatives for targeted drug delivery [PDF]
, 2016 Single-chain antibodies (scFvs), which contain only the variable domains of full-length antibodies, are relatively small molecules that can be used for selective drug delivery.

Rotavirus gene silencing by small interfering RNAs [PDF]
EMBO reports, 2002 RNA interference is an evolutionarily conserved double‐stranded RNA‐triggered mechanism for suppressing gene expression. Rotaviruses, the leading cause of severe diarrhea in young children, are formed by three concentric layers of protein, from which the spike protein VP4 projects.

Phased secondary small interfering RNAs in Panaxnotoginseng [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2018 أظهرت النتائج الحديثة أن الجينات غير المشفرة أو الترميز تولد الحمض النووي الريبي الثانوي المتداخل الصغير المرحلي (phasiRNAs) الذي يسترشد بحمض نووي مرئي محدد. حتى الآن، لا توجد دراسات للحمض النووي الريبي الطوري في باناكس نوتوجينسينغ (بورك.) ف.ه. تشين (P. notoginseng)، وهو نوع مهم من النباتات الطبية العشبية الصينية التقليدية.

Interleukin-18 enhances vascular calcification and osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells through TRPM7 channel activation [PDF]
, 2017 Objective—Vascular calcification (VC) is an important predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is a key mechanism of VC. Recent studies show that IL-18 (interleukin-18) favors

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

Role of RNA Interference (RNAi) in the Moss Physcomitrella patens [PDF]
, 2013 RNA interference (RNAi) is a mechanism that regulates genes by either transcriptional (TGS) or posttranscriptional gene silencing (PTGS), required for genome maintenance and proper development of an organism.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).
