Antisense therapeutics in oncology: current status
There is increasing progress in translational oncology and tremendous breakthroughs have been made as evidenced by preclinical and clinical trials. Data obtained from high-throughput technologies are deepening our understanding about the molecular and gene network in cancer cells and rapidly emerging in vitro and in vivo evidence is highlighting the role of antisense agents as specific inhibito...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Therapeutics in Critical Care
The purpose of this manuscript is to summarise current issues in antimicrobial therapeutics, specifically relating to antibacterial drugs, in the critical care setting. Antimicrobial taxonomy, mode of action, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are important considerations in choosing the most appropriate agent for treatment of infections. Adverse effects of antibiotics can range from mild ga...
متن کاملAntimicrobial peptide therapeutics for cystic fibrosis.
Greater than 90% of lung infections in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and the majority of these patients subsequently die from lung damage. Current therapies are either targeted at reducing obstruction, reducing inflammation, or reducing infection. To identify potential therapeutic agents for the CF lung, 150 antimicrobial peptides consisting of three distin...
متن کاملAntisense Technology: An Emerging Platform for Cardiovascular Disease Therapeutics
Antisense oligonucleotides and small interfering RNAs, which suppress the translation of specific mRNA target proteins, are emerging as important therapeutic modalities for the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Over the last 25 years, the advances in all aspects of antisense technology, as well as a detailed understanding of the mechanism of action of antisense drugs, have enabled their use ...
متن کاملNucleic Acid Therapeutics: Current Targets For Antisense Oligonucleotides And Ribozymes
Nucleic acids are becoming increasingly important as therapeutic molecules mainly for the ease with which specificity for a vast range of targets of these drugs is achieved. Yet the dose rates of several mg/kg are not easy to provide. Reform of drug policy has been suggested earlier to facilitate newer therapeutic strategies to be put to use. With the current technology, each mg of the unmodifi...
