Anti-tumor activity of splice-switching oligonucleotides
Alternative splicing has emerged as an important target for molecular therapies. Splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs) modulate alternative splicing by hybridizing to pre-mRNA sequences involved in splicing and blocking access to the transcript by splicing factors. Recently, the efficacy of SSOs has been established in various animal disease models; however, the application of SSOs against c...
متن کاملDevelopment of therapeutic splice-switching oligonucleotides.
Synthetic splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs) target nuclear pre-mRNA molecules to change exon splicing and generate an alternative protein isoform. Clinical trials with two competitive SSO drugs are underway to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Beyond DMD, many additional therapeutic applications are possible, with some in phase 1 clinical trials or advanced preclinical evaluation....
متن کاملSplice-switching antisense oligonucleotides as therapeutic drugs
Splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs) are short, synthetic, antisense, modified nucleic acids that base-pair with a pre-mRNA and disrupt the normal splicing repertoire of the transcript by blocking the RNA-RNA base-pairing or protein-RNA binding interactions that occur between components of the splicing machinery and the pre-mRNA. Splicing of pre-mRNA is required for the proper expression of...
متن کاملPeptide Nanoparticle Delivery of Charge-Neutral Splice-Switching Morpholino Oligonucleotides
Oligonucleotide analogs have provided novel therapeutics targeting various disorders. However, their poor cellular uptake remains a major obstacle for their clinical development. Negatively charged oligonucleotides, such as 2'-O-Methyl RNA and locked nucleic acids have in recent years been delivered successfully into cells through complex formation with cationic polymers, peptides, liposomes, o...
متن کاملRNA modulation, repair and remodeling by splice switching oligonucleotides.
Targeting splicing by antisense oligonucleotides allows RNA modifications that are not possible with RNA interference or other antisense techniques that destine the RNA for destruction. By changing the ratio of naturally occurring splice variants the expression of mRNA is modulated. By preventing the use of an aberrant splice site created by a mutation and enforcing re-selection of correct spli...
