摘要:
The present invention relates to therapeutic agents useful for the treatment of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in humans. In particular, the present invention relates to RNA interference (RNAi) molecules useful for inhibiting the infection and replication of hSARS virus. Preferably, the RNAi molecules target the replicase region of the hSARS virus, or combinations of different sites of hSARS virus genes. The present invention further encompasses methods of using the RNAi molecules for preventing and/or treating SARS. Vaccines and kits comprising therapeutically effective amounts of the RNAi molecules are also encompassed.

The invention provides a vector comprising an AAV-shRNA vector. The vector is preferably rAAV-151i/1694i. The invention also provides a method of suppressing or inhibiting HBV replication in liver cells infected therewith, comprising administering an amount of an AAVB-shRNA vector effective to suppress, inhibit or reduce HBV replication.
摘要:
The present invention relates to the inhibition of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication by RNA molecules of the present invention. Specifically, the RNA molecules of the present invention are double-stranded ribonucleic acid molecules (dsRNA). Specifically, the invention relates to small interfering RNAs (siRNA) which are double-stranded RNAs that direct the sequence-specific degradation of messenger RNA in mammalian cells. The invention relates to development of a new anti-HBV therapy by inhibition of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) replication using stably-expressed short hairpin RNAs (shRNA), which degrade HBV pregenomic RNA and message RNAs. Included are methods of treatment of cancer by the administration of RNA molecules of the present invention in combination with surgery, alone or in further combination with standard and experimental chemotherapies, hormonal therapies, biological therapies/immunotherapies and/or radiation therapies.
摘要:
The present invention provides methods for locating critical portions or sites on the spike protein (S protein) of SARS-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) responsible for the viral infection that causes Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The present invention also provides new synthetic peptides targeting such critical portions or sites of the S protein of SARS-CoV for preventing or treating of SARS-CoV infection in a subject. The present invention further provides methods of testing antiviral activity exerted by antiviral agents using real-time quantitative PCR.
