DNA/RNA heteroduplex oligonucleotide for highly efficient gene silencing
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are recognized therapeutic agents for the modulation of specific genes at the post-transcriptional level. Similar to any medical drugs, there are opportunities to improve their efficacy and safety. Here we develop a short DNA/RNA heteroduplex oligonucleotide (HDO) with a structure different from double-stranded RNA used for short interfering RNA and single-stra...
متن کاملMechanism of oligonucleotide release from cationic liposomes.
We propose a mechanism for oligonucleotide (ODN) release from cationic lipid complexes in cells that accounts for various observations on cationic lipid-nucleic acid-cell interactions. Fluorescent confocal microscopy of cells treated with rhodamine-labeled cationic liposome/ fluorescein-labeled ODN (F-ODN) complexes show the F-ODN separates from the lipid after internalization and enters the nu...
متن کاملCationic carbosilane dendrimers and oligonucleotide binding: an energetic affair.
Generation 2 cationic carbosilane dendrimers hold great promise as internalizing agents for gene therapy as they present low toxicity and retain and internalize the genetic material as an oligonucleotide or siRNA. In this work we carried out complete in silico structural and energetical characterization of the interactions of a set of G2 carbosilane dendrimers, showing different affinity toward...
متن کاملNuclear antisense effects of neutral, anionic and cationic oligonucleotide analogs.
The antisense activity of oligomers with 2'-O-methyl (2'-O-Me) phosphorothioate, 2'-O-methoxyethyl (2'-O-MOE) phosphorothioate, morpholino and peptide nucleic acid (PNA) backbones was investigated using a splicing assay in which the modified oligonucleotides blocked aberrant and restored correct splicing of modified enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) precursor to mRNA (pre-mRNA), generat...
متن کاملOligonucleotide-based gene therapy for cardiovascular disease: are oligonucleotide therapeutics novel cardiovascular drugs?
Gene therapy is emerging as a potential strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular disease such as restenosis after angioplasty, vascular bypass graft occlusion, transplant coronary vasculopathy, for which no known effective therapy exists. One strategy for combating disease processes has been to target to the transcriptional process. Two approaches have been used to accomplish this. One is t...
