The present invention relates to antisense-oligonucleotides having a length of at least 10 nucleotides, wherein at least two of the nucleotides are LNAs, their use as inhibitors of TGF-R signaling, pharmaceutical compositions containing such antisense-oligonucleotides and the use for prophylaxis and treatment of neurological, neurodegenerative, fibrotic and hyperproliferative diseases.

The invention relates to nucleic acid products that interfere with or inhibit PROS1 gene expression. It further relates to therapeutic uses of PROS1 inhibition for the treatment of bleeding disorders.

The invention relates to editing oligonucleotides (EONs) for binding to a target nucleic acid and recruiting an enzyme with nucleotide deamination activity to edit the target nucleic acid. The EONs carry phosphonoacetate internucleotide linkage modifications and/or unlocked nucleic acid (UNA) ribose modifications at specified positions and do not carry such modifications on positions that would lower nucleic acid editing efficiency. The selection of positions that should or should not carry a modification is based on computational modelling that revealed incompatibilities of the modifications with the enzyme with nucleotide deamination activity.

The present disclosure includes the use of a miRNA inhibitor for treating a symptom or condition of Huntington’s disease. The miRNA inhibitor useful for the present disclosure can inhibit miR-485 expression and/or activity, which in turn can modulate the level of proteins or gene expression related to Huntington’s disease.

The present invention relates to products and compositions and their uses. In particular the invention relates to nucleic acid products that interfere with the TMPRSS6 gene expression or inhibits its expression and therapeutic uses such as for the treatment of hemochromatosis, porphyria and blood disorders such as β-thalassemias, sickle cell disease and transfusional iron overload or myelodysplastic syndrome.

The invention relates to nucleic acid products that interfere with complement component C3 gene expression or inhibit its expression. The nucleic acids are preferably for use as treatment, prevention or reduction of risk of suffering from complement component C3 associated diseases, disorders or syndromes, particularly C3 Glomerulopathy (C3G), Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (aHUS), Lupus nephritis, IgA nephropathy (IgA N), Cold Agglutinin Disease (CAD), Myasthenia gravis (MG), and Primary Membranous Nephropathy.

The present invention relates to products and compositions and their uses. In particular the invention relates to nucleic acid products that interfere with the TMPRSS6 gene expression or inhibits its expression and therapeutic uses such as for the treatment of hemochromatosis, porphyria and blood disorders such as β-thalassemias, sickle cell disease and transfusional iron overload or myelodysplastic syndrome.

One aspect of the present invention relates to double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) agent capable of inhibiting the expression of a target gene. The sense strand of the dsRNA agent comprises at least one thermally destabilizing nucleotide, and at least one said thermally destabilizing nucleotide occurring at a site opposite to the seed region (positions 2-8) of the antisense strand; and the antisense strand of the dsRNA agent comprises. at least two modified nucleotides that provide the nucleotide a steric bulk that is less than or equal to the steric bulk of a 2′-OMe modification, wherein said modified nucleotides are separated by 11 nucleotides in length. Other aspects of the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these dsRNA agents suitable for therapeutic use, and methods of inhibiting the expression of a target gene by administering these dsRNA agents, e.g., for the treatment of various disease conditions.

The present invention relates to antisense-oligonucleotides having a length of at least 10 nucleotides, wherein at least two of the nucleotides are LNAs, their use as inhibitors of TGF-R signaling, pharmaceutical compositions containing such antisense-oligonucleotides and the use for prophylaxis and treatment of neurological, neurodegenerative, fibrotic and hyperproliferative diseases.

In certain aspects, the present invention provides methods for inducing a stable gene modification of a target nucleic acid via homologous recombination in a primary cell, such as a primary blood cell and/or a primary mesenchymal cell. In certain other aspects, the present invention provides methods for enriching a population of genetically modified primary cells having targeted integration at a target nucleic acid. The methods of the present invention rely on the introduction of a DNA nuclease such as a Cas polypeptide and a homologous donor adeno-associated viral (AAV) vector into the primary cell to mediate targeted integration of the target nucleic acid. Also provided herein are methods for preventing or treating a disease in a subject in need thereof by administering to the subject any of the genetically modified primary cells or pharmaceutical compositions described herein to prevent the disease or ameliorate one or more symptoms of the disease.
