AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION TREATMENT
This invention is directed to an RNA interference (RNAi) agent and the use of that RNAi agent to treat Age-related Macular Degeneration, as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing the RNAi agents of the invention. The RNAi agent is a DNA-directed RNA interference (ddRNAi) agent (being an RNA molecule), together with an expression cassette or construct to express that agent in a cell (including in vivo), for inhibiting, preventing or reducing expression of an AMD associated gene. Preferably that AMD associated gene is one that is associated with wet AMD.
SMALL INTERFERING RNA TARGETING CFB AND USES THEREOF
This disclosure relates to isolated oligonucleotides comprising duplex regions targeting human CFB mRNA, and delivery systems, kits and compositions comprising the same, and methods of using the same for inhibiting or downregulating CFB gene expression.
POLYPEPTIDES FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND THE TREATMENT OF C3 NEF ASSOCIATED C3 GLOMERULOPATHY
The present invention relates to polypeptides for the diagnosis and treatment of C3 NeF associated C3 Glomerulopathy. In particular, the present invention is defined by the claims. In particular, the present invention relates to a polypeptide that is capable of inhibiting the binding of C3 NeF to C3 convertase and which comprises a first segment which consists of n consecutive amino acids selected in a first amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:1 fused to a second segment which consists of n consecutive amino acids selected in a second amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:2, wherein n and n represent integer number, n and n3 and n+n10.
COMPLEMENT COMPONENT iRNA COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
The invention relates to iRNA, e.g., double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA), compositions targeting the complement factor B (CFB) gene, the complement component C3 gene, and the complement component C9 gene and methods of using such iRNA, e.g., dsRNA, compositions to inhibit expression of CFB, C9 and/or C3 and to treat subjects having a complement component-associated disease, e.g., paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR MODULATING COMPLEMENT FACTOR B EXPRESSION
The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions for treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease associated with dysregulation of the complement alternative pathway by administering a Complement Factor B (CFB) specific inhibitor to a subject.
Complement Factor B Analogs and Their Uses
The invention provides polypeptides comprising a complement factor B analog. The invention also provides various complement factor B analogs including complement factor B analogs comprising a mutation of a free cysteine amino acid and related methods, nucleic acids and vectors. These complement factor B analogs and related methods, nucleic acids and vectors can be used to modulate a complement pathway or for the study and/or treatment of various conditions or diseases related to a complement pathway.
