The Making of an siRNA [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2004
An array of gene silencing pathways share a common early step: Dicer cleaves double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into approximately 20-25 nucleotide fragments that direct the silencing machinery to specific targets. A recent report in Cell reveals how Dicer's two RNase III domains collaborate during dsRNA processing and sets the stage for a deeper ...

Filtering of Ineffective siRNAs and Improved siRNA Design Tool [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2004
Abstract Motivation: Short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) can be used to suppress gene expression and possess many potential applications in therapy, but how to design an effective siRNA is still not clear. Based on the MPI (Max-Planck-Institute) basic principles, a number of siRNA design tools have been developed recently.

Targeted Delivery of siRNA [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2006
Therapeutic application of siRNA requires delivery to the correct intracellular location, to interact with the RNAi machinery within the target cell, within the target tissue responsible for the pathology. Each of these levels of targeting poses a significant barrier.

Retrovirus-delivered siRNA [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2002
The ability of transfected synthetic small interfering (si) RNAs to suppress the expression of specific transcripts has proved a useful technique to probe gene function in mammalian cells. However, high production costs limit this technology's utility for many laboratories and experimental situations.

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

Addis Ababa/Finfinee: A Blueprint towards Twin-city Administration

open access: yesEthiopian Journal of the Social Sciences and Humanities, 2018
This article analyses the challenge of Addis Ababa´s double status – both as capital of Ethiopia and that of the Regional State of Oromia. It delves into the unresolved issue of the special interest of Oromia in Addis Ababa/Finfinnee.

Migrations de retour dans les Alpes italiennes : mobilités, « cittadinanza » et sentiment d’appartenance

open access: yesRevue Européenne des Migrations Internationales, 2017
Migration studies often neglect return mobility or, on the contrary, the latter becomes the object of studies that do not consider the country where migrants settled, sometimes during years. Building on a critical understanding of “return”, this research

Beyond ribose and phosphate: Selected nucleic acid modifications for structure–function investigations and therapeutic applications

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2021
Over the past 25 years, the acceleration of achievements in the development of oligonucleotide-based therapeutics has resulted in numerous new drugs making it to the market for the treatment of various diseases. Oligonucleotides with alterations to their

Electrotransfer of siRNA to Silence Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein in Tumor Mediated by a High Intensity Pulsed Electromagnetic Field

open access: yesVaccines, 2020
The contactless high intensity pulsed electromagnetic field (HI-PEMF)-induced increase of cell membrane permeability is similar to conventional electroporation, with the important difference of inducing an electric field non-invasively by exposing a ...

MIL-101-NH2-mediated nucleic acid delivery and gene silencing

open access: yes上海师范大学学报. 自然科学版, 2021
Nucleic acids, including DNA and RNA, can participate in the regulation of gene expression in all organisms. However, those nucleic acid molecules are easily to be degraded. If they are directly administered orally or intravenously, their bioavailability
