Small interfering RNAs in tendon homeostasis
British 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 ...

Polymers in Small-Interfering RNA Delivery [PDF]
Oligonucleotides, 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.

A small interfering RNA (siRNA) database for SARS-CoV-2
Scientific Reports, 2021 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) rapidly transformed into a global pandemic, for which a demand for developing antivirals capable of targeting the SARS-CoV-2 RNA genome and blocking the activity of its genes has emerged.

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

Therapeutic opportunities of small interfering RNA [PDF]
Fundamental & 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.

Small interfering RNAs in the management of human osteoporosis
British Medical Bulletin, 2023 Abstract Background Osteoporosis results in reduced bone mass and consequent bone fragility. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) can be used for therapeutic purposes, as molecular targets or as useful markers to test new therapies. Sources of data

Endogenous small interfering RNAs in animals [PDF]
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2008 Until recently, only nematodes among animals had a well-defined endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA) pathway. This has changed dramatically with the recent discovery of diverse intramolecular and intermolecular substrates that generate endo-siRNAs in Drosophila melanogaster and mice.

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]
, 2014 microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-
