ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDES FOR INDUCING EXON SKIPPING AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF
An antisense molecule capable of binding to a selected target site to induce exon skipping in the dystrophin gene, as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 to 214.
TREATMENT OF SODIUM CHANNEL, VOLTAGE-GATED, ALPHA SUBUNIT (SCNA) RELATED DISEASES BY INHIBITION OF NATURAL ANTISENSE TRANSCRIPT TO SCNA
The present invention relates to antisense oligonucleotides that modulate the expression of and/or function of Sodium channel, voltage-gated, alpha subunit (SCNA), in particular, by targeting natural antisense polynucleotides of Sodium channel, voltage-gated, alpha subunit (SCNA). The invention also relates to the identification of these antisense oligonucleotides and their use in treating diseases and disorders associated with the expression of SCNA.
COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED CELLULAR UPTAKE OF ANTISENSE COMPOUNDS
The present invention provides method of increasing the efficacy and potency of antisense compounds. In certain embodiments, the invention provides methods for improved cellular uptake.
REDUCING INTRON RETENTION
Disclosed herein are methods, compositions, polynucleic acid polymers, assays, and kits for inducing processing of a partially processed mRNA transcript to remove a retained intron to produce a fully processed mRNA transcript that encodes a full-length functional form of a protein. Also described herein are methods and compositions for treating a disease or condition characterized by impaired production of a full-length functional form of a protein or for treating a disease or condition characterized by a defective splicing in a subject.
COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS
Provided herein are oligomeric compounds with conjugate groups. In certain embodiments, the oligomeric compounds are conjugated to N-Acetylgalactosamine.
ANTISENSE OLIGONUCLEOTIDES FOR MODULATING HTRA1 EXPRESSION
The present invention relates to antisense oligonucleotides (oligomers) that are complementary to HTRA1, leading to modulation of the expression of HTRA1. Modulation of HTRA1 expression is beneficial for a range of medical disorders, such as macular degeneration, e.g. age-related macular degeneration.
OLIGOMERIC COMPOUNDS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR USE IN MODULATION OF SMALL NON-CODING RNAs
Compounds, compositions and methods are provided for modulating the expression and function of small non-coding RNAs. The compositions comprise oligomeric compounds, targeted to small non-coding RNAs. Methods of using these compounds for modulation of small non-coding RNAs as well as downstream targets of these RNAs and for diagnosis and treatment of disease associated with small non-coding RNAs are also provided.
MODIFIED RNAi AGENTS
One aspect of the present invention relates to double-stranded RNAi (dsRNA) duplex agent capable of inhibiting the expression of a target gene. The dsRNA duplex comprises one or more motifs of three identical modifications on three consecutive nucleotides in one or both strand, particularly at or near the cleavage site of the strand. 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.
ANTISENSE COMPOUNDS AND USES THEREOF
The present disclosure provides oligomeric compounds. The present disclosure provides metabolically stable linkers that do not rapidly degrade in vivo. In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides metabolically stable linkers for use in attaching a conjugate group to an oligonucleotide.
COMPOUNDS AND METHODS FOR THE MODULATION OF PROTEINS
In certain embodiments, the present disclosure provides compounds and methods of increasing the amount or activity of a target protein in a cell. In certain embodiments, the compounds comprise a translation suppression element inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the translation suppression element inhibitor is a uORF inhibitor. In certain embodiments, the uORF inhibitor is an antisense compound.
