Silencing disease genes in the laboratory and the clinic

, 2011
Synthetic nucleic acids are commonly used laboratory tools for modulating gene expression and have the potential to be widely used in the clinic. Progress towards nucleic acid drugs, however, has been slow and many challenges remain to be overcome before

Molecular genetic analysis of siRNA biogenesis and function in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

, 2009
In diverse eukaryotes, small RNA products of Dicer-like (DCL) proteins regulate mRNA stability or translation, and direct chromatin modifications to genomic regions, phenomena collectively known as RNA silencing.

Small Interfering RNA Carriers for Oncotherapy: A Preclinical Overview

Pharmaceutics
Introduction: Gene therapy using siRNA is a current area of research in oncology. Although siRNA formulations have not yet been approved for cancer therapy, numerous studies have demonstrated their therapeutic potential for tumor remission. Objective: To

The promise and progress of RNA-interference-based antiviral therapy for respiratory syncytial virus.

Журнал инфектологии, 2014
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of morbidity in infants, young children, and the elderly worldwide. Presently, there are no explicit recommendations for RSV treatment apart from supportive care.

Single‐cell DNA methylation profiling: Technologies, computation, and applications in precision oncology

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Single‐cell DNA methylation (scDNAme) profiling maps epimutational clonal evolution, revealing mechanisms of malignancy and therapeutic resistance across diverse cancer types. By providing a high‐resolution landscape of intratumoral heterogeneity, these technologies empower precise patient stratification, guide the development of enhanced ...

RNA interference targets arbovirus replication in Culicoides cells [PDF]

, 2013
Arboviruses are transmitted to vertebrate hosts by biting arthropod vectors such as mosquitoes, ticks and midges. These viruses replicate in both arthropods and vertebrates and are thus exposed to different antiviral responses in these organisms.

Colored petri net modeling of small interfering RNA-mediated messenger RNA degradation

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2016
Background: Mathematical modeling of biological systems is an attractive way for studying complex biological systems and their behaviors. Petri Nets, due to their ability to model systems with various levels of qualitative information, have been wildly ...

Nanoparticle‐mediated siRNA delivery systems for cancer therapy

View, 2021
The small interfering RNA (siRNA)‐based therapeutics have raised great attention since the first RNA interference (RNAi)‐derived drug, patisiran, was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, which represented a landmark in the field of gene ...

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]

, 2015
RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.
