    摘要: The present invention relates to a double-stranded RNAi agent capable of inhibiting the expression of a target gene, comprising a sense strand and an antisense strand, each strand having 14 to 30 nucleotides, wherein the sense strand sequence is represented by formula (I):

            5' n p -N a -(X X X ) i -N b -Y Y Y-N b -(Z Z Z ) j -N a -n q 3'     (I)

    wherein: i and j are each independently 0 or 1; p and q are each independently 0-6; each N a independently represents an oligonucleotide sequence comprising 2-10 modified nucleotides, each sequence comprising at least two differently modified nucleotides; each Nb independently represents an oligonucleotide sequence comprising 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 modified nucleotides, preferably 2'-O-methyl modified nucleotides; each n p and n q independently represent an overhang nucleotide; wherein N b and Y do not have the same modification; wherein XXX, YYY and ZZZ each independently represent one motif of three identical modifications on three consecutive nucleotides; and wherein the antisense strand of the dsRNA comprises two blocks of two phosphorothioate or methylphosphonate internucleotide linkages separated by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, or 18 phosphate internucleotide linkages.
