Abstract Gene therapy has recently become a reality in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Strategies to modulate gene expression using antisense oligonucleotides or small interfering RNA are proving to be safe and effective in the clinic. Adeno‐associated viral vector‐based gene delivery and CRISPR‐Cas9‐based genome editing have emerged as ...

Abstract Three types of highly promising small RNA therapeutics, namely, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and the RNA subtype of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs), offer advantages over small‐molecule drugs. These small RNAs can target any gene product, opening up new avenues of effective and safe therapeutic approaches for a wide ...

Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of GalNAc‐Conjugated siRNAs
Abstract Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) represent a new class of drugs with tremendous potential for battling previously “undruggable” diseases. After nearly 2 decades of efforts in addressing the problems of the poor drug profile of naked unmodified siRNAs, this new modality has finally come to fruition, with 5 agents (patisiran, givosiran, lumasiran,

Zilebesiran: The First siRNA Drug Therapy for Hypertension
Blood pressure, which includes ischemic heart disease, stroke, and chronic kidney disease, is the leading preventable cause of death from cardiovascular illnesses on a global scale. Worldwide, arterial hypertension ranks first among cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and has done so for a long time. One of the first drugs to target hypertension using small

Zilebesiran: an RNA therapeutic agent interfering with angiotensinogen synthesis
Hypertension remains a leading modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide, yet rates of blood pressure control remain suboptimal despite the availability of multiple classes of antihypertensive agents. Zilebesiran is a novel small interfering RNA therapeutic that targets hepatic angiotensinogen messenger RNA, offering a
