Dynamin 2 inhibitor for the treatment of centronuclear myopathies
The present disclosure relates to an inhibitor of Dynamin 2 for use in the treatment of centronuclear myopathies. The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing Dynamin 2 inhibitor and to their use for the treatment of centronuclear myopathies. It also deals with a method for identifying or screening molecules useful in the treatment of a centronuclear myopathy.
Antisense targeting dynamin 2 and use for the treatment of centronuclear myopathies and neuropathies
The present invention concerns the use of antisense oligonucleotides (AON) capable of inhibiting expression of dynamin 2, advantageously human dynamin 2, for use in the treatment of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) and centronuclear myopathies (CNM).
PRODUCTS AND METHODS FOR INHIBITION OF EXPRESSION OF DYNAMIN-1 VARIANTS
RNA interference-based methods and products for inhibiting the expression of pathogenic dynamin-1 variants are provided. Delivery vehicles such as recombinant adeno-associated viruses deliver DNAs encoding RNAs that inhibit the expression of the dynamin-1 variants. The methods treat, for example, developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.
DYNAMIN 2 INHIBITOR FOR THE TREATMENT OF CENTRONUCLEAR MYOPATHIES
The present disclosure relates to an inhibitor of Dynamin 2 for use in the treatment of centronuclear myopathies. The present disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing Dynamin 2 inhibitor and to their use for the treatment of centronuclear myopathies. It also deals with a method for identifying or screening molecules useful in the treatment of a centronuclear myopathy.
OPA1 ANTISENSE OLIGOMERS FOR TREATMENT OF CONDITIONS AND DISEASES
Alternative splicing events in genes can lead to non-productive mRNA transcripts which in turn can lead to aberrant protein expression, and therapeutic agents which can target the alternative splicing events in genes can modulate the expression level of functional proteins in patients and/or inhibit aberrant protein expression. Such therapeutic agents can be used to treat a condition or disease caused by protein deficiency and/or mitochondrial function deficit.

Gene sequence of recombinant human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase and uses thereof
A gene sequence of recombinant human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase having a nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 and uses thereof. A fusion nucleic acid comprising a nucleic acid encoding human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase. A recombinant expression vector comprising the nucleic acid or a fusion nucleic acid. A transformant by which the nucleic acid or the fusion nucleic acid is introduced into a host. A non-human mammalian ADOA model based on the inactivation of the gene of type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase, which can effectively improve the pathological manifestations of ADOA using a recombinant expression vector encoding the human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase. The expression level of the nucleic acid encoding the human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase is higher, therefore, more human type II mitochondrial dynein-like GTPase can be obtained in the mitochondria. which can better treat eye diseases such as ADOA.
DESIGNING CUSTOMIZED PROTEIN-SPECIFIC-BUFFER SYSTEM
The present invention is related to the field of protein chemistry. In particular, mixed buffer compositions are formulated that allow an accurate identification of agent-induced changes in protein melting point temperatures. Such buffer compositions provide for methods that determine the specific effects of exogenous agents on protein stability, cryoprotective effects and/or protein quality control (e.g., synthesis and/or extraction purity validations).
PERIOSTEAL SKELETAL STEM CELLS IN BONE REPAIR
Embodiments of the disclosure encompass methods and compositions for bone repair and bone injury healing. In some embodiments, the bone repair and bone injury healing utilizes the enhancement of migration of certain types of bone cells upon stimulation by a particular cytokine. In specific embodiments, migration of periosteal skeletal stem cells upon delivery of CCL5 and/or TNFα is enhanced and fosters bone repair and healing.
MUSCLE TARGETING COMPLEXES AND USES THEREOF FOR TREATING CENTRONUCLEAR MYOPATHY
Aspects of the disclosure relate to complexes comprising a muscle-targeting agent covalently linked to a molecular payload. In some embodiments, the muscle-targeting agent specifically binds to an internalizing cell surface receptor on muscle cells. In some embodiments, the molecular payload inhibits expression or activity of DNM2. In some embodiments, the molecular payload is an oligonucleotide, such as an antisense oligonucleotide or RNAi oligonucleotide.
