Provided herein are modulators of a long noncoding transcript, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the modulator, and kits comprising the modulator. Also provided herein are methods of modulating a long noncoding transcript in a subject in need thereof. Further provided here are methods of preventing, alleviating, or treating pulmonary fibrosis or inflammation induced or associated with ARDS in a subject in need thereof.

Disclosed herein are antisense compounds and methods for decreasing apo(a) to treat, prevent, or ameliorate diseases, disorders or conditions related to apo(a) or Lp(a). Certain diseases, disorders or conditions related to apo(a) or Lp(a) include inflammatory, cardiovascular and/or metabolic diseases, disorders or conditions. The antisense compounds disclosed herein can be used to treat such diseases, disorders or conditions in an individual in need thereof.

Aspects of the invention relate to methods for treating an ocular disorder associated with the front of the eye, comprising administering to the eye of a subject in need thereof a therapeutic RNA molecule, in an effective amount to treat an ocular disorder associated with the front of the eye.

The invention relates to compositions and methods for the preparation, manufacture and therapeutic use of modulatory polynucleotides.

Provided are compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions for reducing the amount or activity of PRNP RNA in a cell or animal, and in certain instances reducing the amount of PrP protein in a cell or animal. Such compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions are useful to ameliorate at least one symptom or hallmark of a neurodegenerative disease. Such symptoms and hallmarks spongiform changes in the brain, development of abnormal protein aggregates, neuronal loss, markers of neuronal loss, rapidly progressing dementia, and death. Such neurodegenerative diseases include prion diseases, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD), familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (fCJD), Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker syndrome, fatal familial insomnia, kuru, Alzheimer's disease, or Parkinson's disease.

The present disclosure provides noncovalently-linked multimeric oligonucleotides that may exhibit efficient and specific tissue distribution, cellular uptake, minimum immune response and off-target effects. Additionally, the disclosure provides methods for delivering the siRNA molecule of the disclosure to the central nervous system of a subject, such as a subject identified as having a need for gene silencing.

The invention relates to double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) compositions targeting the ANGPTL3 gene, as well as methods of inhibiting expression of ANGPTL3 and methods of treating subjects having a disorder of lipid metabolism, such as hyperlipidemia or hypertriglyceridemia, using such dsRNA compositions.

Provided are compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions for reducing the amount or activity of PRNP RNA in a cell or animal, and in certain instances reducing the amount of PrP protein in a cell or animal. Such compounds, methods, and pharmaceutical compositions are useful to ameliorate at least one symptom or hallmark of a neurodegenerative disease. Such symptoms and hallmarks spongiform changes in the brain, development of abnormal protein aggregates, neuronal loss, markers of neuronal loss, rapidly progressing dementia, and death. Such neurodegenerative diseases include prion diseases, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (vCJD), familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (fCJD), Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker syndrome, fatal familial insomnia, kuru, Alzheimer's disease, or Parkinson's disease.
