Rescue of Mtp siRNA-induced hepatic steatosis by DGAT2 siRNA silencing

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (Mtp) inhibitors represent a novel therapeutic approach to lower circulating LDL cholesterol, although therapeutic development has been hindered by the observed increase in hepatic triglycerides and liver ...

Progress in RNA-targeting and Gene Editing Therapies for Transthyretin Amyloidosis Cardiomyopathy

open access: yes罕见病研究, 2023
Transthyretin(TTR) protein is a tetramer protein, synthesized mainly by the liver. TTR can be misfolded and deposited as amyloid fibrilae and deposited in the myocardial interstroma leading to transthyroxin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM).

Novel Cell type-specific aptamer-siRNA delivery system for HIV-1 therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The successful use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) for therapeutic purposes requires safe and efficient delivery to specific cells and tissues. Here we demonstrate cell type-specific delivery of anti-HIV siRNAs via fusion to an anti-gp120 aptamer. The

siRNA-induced liver ApoB knockdown lowers serum LDL-cholesterol in a mouse model with human-like serum lipids[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2011
Increased serum apolipoprotein (apo)B and associated LDL levels are well-correlated with an increased risk of coronary disease. ApoE–/– and low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLr)–/– mice have been extensively used for studies of coronary atherosclerosis.

siRNA-optimized Modifications for Enhanced In Vivo Activity

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2012
Current modifications used in small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), such as 2’-methoxy (2’-OMe) and 2’-fluoro (2’-F), improve stability, specificity or immunogenic properties but do not improve potency.

Mathematical Modeling: A Tool for Optimization of Lipid Nanoparticle-Mediated Delivery of siRNA

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2017
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have been used to successfully deliver small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) to target cells in both preclinical and clinical studies and currently are the leading systems for in vivo delivery. Here, we propose the use of an ordinary

Effect of antiviral siRNAs on the production of cytokines in vitro

open access: yesТонкие химические технологии, 2022
Objectives. To evaluate the dynamics of the expression level of IL-1β and IL-28β (IFN-λ3) genes as a result of complex knockdown of some cellular genes, whose expression products play an important role in the reproduction of the influenza virus.Methods ...

Ultrasound assisted siRNA delivery using PEG-siPlex loaded microbubbles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Short interfering RNA (siRNA) attracts much attention for the treatment of various diseases. However, its delivery, especially via systemic routes, remains a challenge. Indeed, naked siRNAs are rapidly degraded, while complexed siRNAs massively aggregate
