摘要:
The inventive composite having a nanoscale particle size can specifically deliver therapeutic nucleic acids or drugs to the liver and selectively release them into hepatic cells to manifest potent therapeutic effects without inducing any enzymatic abnormalities or pathological damage to the normal liver function, when administered together with the therapeutic agents.
摘要:
The present invention relates to RNA interference mediated inhibition of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) by short interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules. Specially, siRNAs of the present invention which are double-stranded RNAs concern directing the sequence-specific degradation of viral RNA in mammalian cells. Disclosed is a DNA vector encoding the RNA molecules and synthesized siRNA molecules as well as method of therapeutic treatment for inhibition of HBV gene expression and viral replication by the administration of RNA molecules of the present invention.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a therapeutic reagent for hepatitis C comprising HCV specific short interfering RNA (siRNA) as an effective ingredient. The siRNA of the invention is a double-stranded RNA specific for the nucleotide sequence of HCV which induces viral RNA degradation in mammalian cells and thereby inhibits HCV protein expression and replication. The method of the invention, which includes the step of administrating the synthetic siRNA or a DNA vector encoding the RNA, is thus effective for the treatment of HCV carrier by inhibiting HCV gene expression and replication.
摘要:
Disclosed herein is a composite of a nanoscale particle size. The composite is able to specifically deliver therapeutic agents such as therapeutic nucleic acids or drugs to the liver and selectively release them into hepatic cells to manifest potent therapeutic effects of the therapeutic agents. The composite may be comprised of an apolipoprotein A-1 and a liposome-forming material. A composition containing the composite and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier is disclosed.

摘要:
A linear double-stranded RNA molecule, which comprises two or more consecutively or convergently linked short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) each reducing the expression of one of different target genes, and a recombinant expression vector comprising double-stranded DNA sequence expressing the linear double-stranded RNA molecule are provided. The linear double-stranded RNA molecule or the recombinant expression vector is useful for a method of reducing expression of target genes in a cell, the method comprising introducing the linear double-stranded RNA molecule or the recombinant expression vector into the cell, whereby the encoded siRNAs target different genes and reduce expression of the target genes. It was also proved that effective gene silencing activity can be induced when each siRNA unit within the linear double-stranded RNA molecule has 18 to 24 nucleotides and, additionally, the gene silencing activity is not affected by inverted orientation of an siRNA.
