Targeting RNA With Antisense Oligonucleotides and Small Interfering RNA in Dyslipidemias

Design, simplified cloning, and in-silico analysis of multisite small interfering RNA-targeting cassettes

Multiple gene silencing is being required to target and tangle metabolic pathways in eukaryotes and researchers have to develop a subtle method for construction of RNA interference (RNAi) cassettes. Although, several vectors have been developed due to different screening and cloning strategies but still some potential limitations remain to be dissolved. Here, we worked out a simple cloning stra...

Small interfering RNA; principles, applications and challenges--

Gene silencing using RNAi (RNA interference), has recently been used as a successful laboratory technique in determining the function and control of gene expression and provides a wide range of applications in molecular biology and gene therapy. RNAi is a method of suppressing gene expression. In this direction, a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 21–23 nucleotides, called siRNA (small inte...

design, simplified cloning, and in-silico analysis of multisite small interfering rna-targeting cassettes

multiple gene silencing is being required to target and tangle metabolic pathways in eukaryotes and researchers have to develop a subtle method for construction of rna interference (rnai) cassettes. although, several vectors have been developed due to different screening and cloning strategies but still some potential limitations remain to be dissolved. here, we worked out a simple cloning stra...

A small interfering RNA targeting osteopontin as gastric cancer therapeutics.

It has been shown that Osteopontin (OPN) protein is overexpressed in the majority of gastric cancers and associated with its pathogenesis. To better understanding of the role of OPN, RNA interference (RNAi) was used to inhibit OPN expression in the human gastric cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. BGC-823, gastric cancer cell line, was stably transfected with OPN small interfering RNA (siRNA) pl...
