P-ETHOXY NUCLEIC ACIDS FOR STAT3 INHIBITION
Provided herein are improved delivery systems for oligonucleotides, said delivery system comprising a liposome that comprises neutral phospholipids and a P-ethoxy oligonucleotide, which targets a STAT3-encoding polynucleotide. Methods of treating patients with said delivery systems are also provided.
Compositions and their uses directed to huntingtin
Disclosed herein are compounds, compositions and methods for modulating the expression of huntingtin in a cell, tissue or animal. Further provided are methods of slowing or preventing Huntington's Disease (HD) progression using an antisense compound targeted to huntingtin. Additionally provided are methods of delaying or preventing the onset of Huntington's Disease (HD) in an individual susceptible to Huntington's Disease (HD). Also provided are uses of disclosed compounds and compositions in the manufacture of a medicament for treatment of diseases and disorders.
Combination of antisense RNA sequences and use in the production of tilapia with degenerated sexual organs
The present disclosure provides a combination of antisense RNA sequences and use thereof in the production of tilapia with degenerated sexual organs, belonging to the technical field of molecular biology and reproductive biology, the combination of antisense RNA sequences includes antisense RNA of steroidogenic factors SF1-1 and SF1-2; the nucleotide sequences of Anti-SF1-1-I, Anti-SF1-1-II, Anti-SF1-2-I and Anti-SF1-2-II are set forth in SEQ ID NO:1-SEQ ID NO:4 respectively. The method of the present disclosure introduces antisense RNA fragments into the eggs through the fertilization hole to realize effective and accurate targeted intervention for regulating the gene expression, and the method has the advantages of simple operation, minimal egg damage, high success rate, stable phenotype after breeding, and excellent application prospects.

METHODS AND MEANS FOR EFFICIENT DKIPPING OF EXON 45 IN DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY PRE-MRNA
The invention relates to a method for inducing or promoting skipping of exon 45 of DMD pre-mRNA in a Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy patient, preferably in an isolated (muscle) cell, the method comprising providing said cell with an antisense molecule that binds to a continuous stretch of at least 21 nucleotides within said exon. The invention further relates to such antisense molecule used in said method.
Compounds and Methods for Modulating UBE3A-ATS
Provided are compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions for reducing the amount or activity of UBE3A-ATS, the endogenous antisense transcript of ubiquitin protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) in a cell or subject, and in certain instances increasing the expression of paternal UBE3A and the amount of UBE3A protein in a cell or subject. Such compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions are useful to ameliorate at least one symptom or hallmark of a neurogenetic disorder. Such symptoms and hallmarks include developmental delays, ataxia, speech impairment, sleep problems, seizures, and EEG abnormalities. Such neurogenetic disorders include Angelman Syndrome.
EXON SKIPPING OLIGOMER CONJUGATES FOR MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY
Antisense oligomer conjugates complementary to a selected target site in the human dystrophin gene to induce exon 51 skipping are described.
