Cholesterol Conjugates of Small Interfering RNA: Linkers and Patterns of Modification. [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules
Cholesterol siRNA conjugates attract attention because they allow the delivery of siRNA into cells without the use of transfection agents. In this study, we compared the efficacy and duration of silencing induced by cholesterol conjugates of selectively ...

stepRNA: Identification of Dicer cleavage signatures and passenger strand lengths in small RNA sequences

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioinformatics, 2022
The enzyme Dicer is a component of many small RNA (sRNA) pathways involved in RNA processing for post-transcriptional regulation, anti-viral response and control of transposable elements.

Small interfering RNAs in tendon homeostasis

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2021
Abstract Background Tenogenesis and tendon homeostasis are guided by genes encoding for the structural molecules of tendon fibres. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), acting on gene regulation, can therefore participate in the process of tendon healing ...

Therapeutic Interfering Particles Exploiting Viral Replication and Assembly Mechanisms Show Promising Performance: A Modelling Study [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 11, 23847 (2021), 2021
Defective interfering particles arise spontaneously during a viral infection as mutants lacking essential parts of the viral genome. Their ability to replicate in the presence of the wild-type (WT) virus (at the expense of viable viral particles) is mimicked and exploited by therapeutic interfering particles.

Small interfering RNA inhibition of Andes virus replication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Andes virus (ANDV) is the most common causative agent of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the Americas, and is the only hantavirus associated with human-to-human transmission. Case fatality rates of ANDV-induced HPS are approximately 40%. There are

Polymers in Small-Interfering RNA Delivery [PDF]

open access: yesOligonucleotides, 2011
This review will cover the current strategies that are being adopted to efficiently deliver small interfering RNA using nonviral vectors, including the use of polymers such as polyethylenimine, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid), polypeptides, chitosan, cyclodextrin, dendrimers, and polymers-containing different nanoparticles.

Therapeutic opportunities of small interfering RNA [PDF]

open access: yesFundamental & Clinical Pharmacology, 2009
AbstractFormation of small interfering RNA (siRNA) occurs in two steps involving binding of the RNA nucleases to a large double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA) and its cleavage into fragments called siRNA. In the second step, these siRNAs join a multinuclease complex, which degrades the homologous single‐stranded mRNAs.
