Inhibition of MDR1 gene expression by chimeric HNA antisense oligonucleotides.
Hexitol nucleic acids (HNAs) are nuclease resistant and provide strong hybridization to RNA. However, there is relatively little information on the biological properties of HNA antisense oligonucleotides. In this study, we compared the antisense effects of a chimeric HNA 'gapmer' oligonucleotide comprising a phosphorothioate central sequence flanked by 5' and 3' HNA sequences to conventional ph...
متن کاملSpecific inhibition of hepatitis B viral gene expression in vitro by targeted antisense oligonucleotides.
A 21-mer oligodeoxynucleotide complementary to the polyadenylation signal for human hepatitis B virus (HBV) was complexed to a soluble DNA-carrier system that is targetable to hepatocytes via asialoglycoprotein receptors present on those cells. A cell line, HepG2 (2.2.15) that possesses asialoglycoprotein receptors and is permanently transfected with hepatitis B virus (ayw subtype) was exposed ...
متن کاملStrategies for inhibition of MDR1 gene expression.
Several distinct strategies have been used to modulate the expression of cancer-associated genes, including antisense oligonucleotides, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), and artificial transcriptional factors. One major cause for chemotherapeutic treatment failure in cancer is the overexpression of P-glycoprotein, the product of the multidrug resistance gene MDR1. In this study, we tested the ab...
متن کاملSpecific Inhibition of the Expression of the Promyelocytic Leukemia (PML) Protein by Anti-Sense Oligonucleotides
In the present study, using anti-sense oligonucleotides the inhibition of expression of the PML protein hasbeen investigated. The anti-sense oligonucleotides were designed against the translation initiation site ofthe PML gene, and their effects were investigated on cellular growth and DNA synthesis. Incubation of normalhuman fibroblast cells with the anti-sense oligonucleotid...
متن کاملMechanisms of the inhibition of reverse transcription by antisense oligonucleotides.
We have demonstrated that the synthesis of cDNA by avian myeloblastosis virus and Moloney murine leukemia virus reverse transcriptases can be prevented by oligonucleotides bound to the RNA template approximately 100 nucleotides remote from the 3' end of the primer. The RNA was truncated at the level of the antisense oligonucleotide-RNA duplex during the reverse transcription. The key role playe...
