摘要:
Provided herein are compositions, methods and kits for modulating expression of target genes, particularly heat shock protein 47 (hsp47). The compositions, methods and kits may include nucleic acid molecules (for example, short interfering nucleic acid (siNA), short interfering RNA (siRNA), double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), micro-RNA (miRNA) or short hairpin RNA (shRNA)) that modulate a gene encoding hsp47, for example, the gene encoding human hsp47. The composition and methods disclosed herein may also be used in treating conditions and disorders associated with hsp47 such as liver fibrosis, pulmonary fibrosis, peritoneal fibrosis and kidney fibrosis.
摘要:
The invention relates to modified siRNA compounds which down-regulate target gene expression, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds and to methods of treating and/or preventing the incidence or severity of various diseases or conditions associated with the genes and/or symptoms associated with such diseases or conditions.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are therapeutic methods for treating lung diseases, disorders and injury in a mammal, including treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), acute lung injury, pulmonary fibrosis (idiopathic), bleomycin induced pulmonary fibrosis, mechanical ventilator induced lung injury, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, emphysema, bronchiolitis obliterans after lung transplantation and lung transplantation-induced acute graft dysfunction, including treatment, prevention or prevention of progression of primary graft failure, ischemia-reperfusion injury, reperfusion injury, reperfusion edema, allograft dysfunction, pulmonary reimplantation response, bronchiolitis obliterans after lung transplantation and/or primary graft dysfunction (PGD) after organ transplantation, in particular in lung transplantation, comprising downregulating the TLR2 gene or both the TLR2 gene and TLR4 gene. Provided herein are compositions, methods and kits for treating lung diseases, disorders and injury.
摘要:
The present application relates to nucleic acid compounds, compositions comprising same and methods of use thereof for treatment of various diseases, disorders and conditions. The compounds are preferably chemically synthesized and modified double-stranded nucleic acid molecules which down regulate expression of a p53 gene.
摘要:
The present application relates to double stranded nucleic acid compounds, compositions comprising same and methods of use thereof for the treatment of hearing loss in a subject in need thereof. The compounds are preferably chemically synthesized and modified dsRNA molecules which inhibit expression of a gene expressed selected from the group consisting of HES1, HES5, HEY1, HEY2, ID1, ID2, ID3, CDKN1B, and NOTCHl.
摘要:
The present invention relates to compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising same, methods of use thereof and kits for the down-regulation of RhoA gene. The compounds, compositions, methods and kits are useful in the treatment of subjects suffering from diseases or conditions and or symptoms associated with diseases or conditions in which RhoA expression has adverse consequences and for conferring neuroprotection.
