Compositions and methods of use thereof for delivering nucleic acid cargo into cells are provided. The compositions typically include (a) a 3E10 monoclonal antibody or an antigen binding, cell-penetrating fragment thereof; a monovalent, divalent, or multivalent single chain variable fragment (scFv); or a diabody; or humanized form or variant thereof, and (b) a nucleic acid cargo including, for example, a nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide, a functional nucleic acid, a nucleic acid encoding a functional nucleic acid, or a combination thereof. Elements (a) and (b) are typically non-covalently linked to form a complex.

The compositions and methods of the invention provide compositions and methods for preferential targeting of tissues to delivery therapeutic or diagnostic agents. For example, such compounds are useful in the treatment of joint disorders those affecting articulating joints, e.g., injury-induced osteoarthritis as well as autoimmune diseases affecting joint tissue such as rheumatoid arthritis.

The present disclosure relates to modified extracellular vesicles, e.g., exosomes, comprising an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO), which is capable of reducing and/or inhibiting expression of KRAS mRNA and/or KRAS protein. ASOs that can be used with the modified extracellular vesicles are also disclosed. Also provided herein are methods for using the exosomes and ASOs to treat and/or prevent diseases, such as cancer.

Provided herein are compositions of lipid-based nanoparticles, such as exosomes, that contain a therapeutic STAT3-targeting inhibitory RNA. Also provided are methods of using such compositions to treat a patient having fibrosis or a disease associated with fibrosis.

The present disclosure relates to the treatment of dilated cardiomyopathies, in particular to 5 the use of an inhibitor of CILP-1.

This disclosure relates to novel targets for angiogenic disorders. Novel oligonucleotides are also provided. Methods of using the novel oligonucleotides for the treatment of angiogenic disorders (e.g., preeclampsia) are also provided.

Disclosed herein, inter alia, are compositions and methods of modulating macrophage activity. Provided is a method of treating a disease (e.g., a macrophage-associated disease, autoimmune disease, inflammatory disease, or a cancer of an organ in the intraperitoneal cavity), the method including intraperitoneally administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a nanoparticle composition or pharmaceutical composition. Provided is a silica nanoparticle non-covalently bound to a plurality of nucleic acids, wherein the silica nanoparticle has a net positive charge in the absence of the plurality of nucleic acids. Provided is a pharmaceutical composition including a nanoparticle composition as described herein, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

The present invention provides extrcellular vesicles, such as exosomes, engineered to be loaded with miR-345, which may be further loaded with, e.g., miR-146a and let-7b, and/or further be depleted of miR-10a and/or miR-10b. The present invention also provides an assay method, wherein the amounts of miR-345, miR146a, and let-7b in a sample of extracellular vesicles are positively associated with potency, and wherein the amount of miR-10b in a sample of extracellular vesicles is negatively associated with potency.

A construct, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, comprising: (a) a polyethylene glycol-block-poly(L-lysine) polymer moiety, wherein the polyethylene glycol is thiol-functionalized; (b) a cholecystokinin-B (CCK-B) receptor ligand coupled to the polyethylene glycol of the polymer moiety; and (c) a siRNA complexed with the poly(L-lysine) of the polymer moiety, wherein the construct is neutralized.

Compositions and methods for gene editing. In some embodiments, a polynucleotide encoding Cas9 is provided that can provide one or more of improved editing efficiency, reduced immunogenicity, or other benefits.
