The present embodiments provide methods, compounds, and compositions for treating, preventing, or ameliorating a disease associated with excess growth hormone using antisense compounds or oligonucleotides targeted to growth hormone receptor (GHR).

The present invention relates to the field of medicine and provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more of the following isolated amino acid sequences comprising or, alternatively, consisting of, SEQ. ID No.: 3, and/or SEQ. ID No.: 1, and/or SEQ ID No.: 2, kits and conjugates comprising one or more of the above mentioned amino acid sequences. In addition, the present invention relates to the use of the pharmaceutical compositions, kits and conjugates of the present invention as a medicament, in particular in the treatment of an infectious disease, or of an inflammatory condition related to an infectious disease, or of an inflammatory disease related to the presence of a product derived from an infectious agent. The present invention also provides a device for selective binding and separation of at least one component from an aqueous solution wherein the device comprises one or more of the above mentioned amino acid sequences.

The present disclosure provides a class of compounds including a ligand moiety that specifically binds to a cell surface receptor, such as a mannose-6-phosphate receptor (M6PR) or a cell surface asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR). The cell surface M6PR or ASGPR binding compounds can trigger the receptor to internalize into the cell abound compound. The ligand moieties of this disclosure can be linked to a variety of moieties of interest without impacting the specific binding to, and function of, the cell surface receptor, e.g., M6PR or ASGPR. Also provided are compounds that are conjugates of the ligand moieties linked to a biomolecule, such as an antibody, which conjugates can harness cellular pathways to remove specific proteins of interest from the cell surface or from the extracellular milieu. Also provided are methods of using the conjugates to target a polypeptide of interest for sequestration and/or lysosomal degradation.

Example methods comprise administering an immunogenic vaccine composition to a subject, the immunogenic vaccine composition comprising a glycoconjugate. The method can further comprise, in response to the administration of the immunogenic vaccine composition, inducing production of anti-oligomannose antibodies in the subject and thereby eliciting an immune response to a viral pathogen in the subject.

Provided is a modified double-stranded oligonucleotide, in which the sense strand comprises a nucleotide sequence 1, the anti-sense strand comprises a nucleotide sequence 2, the nucleotide sequences 1 and 2 are both 19 nucleotides in length, and in the direction from 5′ end to 3′ end, nucleotides at positions 7, 8 and 9 of the nucleotide sequence 1 and nucleotides at positions 2, 6, 14 and 16 of the nucleotide sequence 2 are all fluoro-modified nucleotides, and each nucleotide at other positions is independently one of non-fluoro-modified nucleotides. Further provided are a pharmaceutical composition and a conjugate comprising the oligonucleotide, and pharmaceutical use thereof.

The present invention relates to RNAi agents, e.g., double stranded RNAi agents, targeting the programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) gene, and methods of using such RNAi agents to inhibit expression of a PD-L1 gene and methods of treating subjects having a PD-L1-associated disorder.
