摘要:
Short interfering ribonucleic acid (siRNA) for oral administration, said siRNA comprising two separate RNA strands that are complementary to each other over at least 15 nucleotides, wherein each strand is 49 nucleotides or less, and wherein at least one of which strands contains at least one chemical modification.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide methods and for improving the stability or efficacy of the double stranded siRNAs by replacing either one or both of its native RNA strands with homologous RNase-resistant poly-DNP-RNA to form poly-DNP-siRNA, where DNP denotes a 2null-O-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) represented by the structure: 1 wherein R2, R4, and R5 are independently H, halide, linear or branched alkyl, linear or branched acyl, linear or branched alkylene, linear or branched O-alkyl, linear or branched amido, linear or branched S-alkyl, mono or disubstituted amine, linear or branched thioamido, phosphothionate, or phosphothioate. Additional embodiments include DNP-derivatized siRNAs with improved stability or efficacy compared to non-DNP-derivatized siRNAs.

摘要:
The invention pertains to modifications for antisense oligonucleotides, wherein the modifications are used to improve stability and provide protection from nuclease degradation. The modifications could also be incorporated into double-stranded nucleic acids, such as synthetic siRNAs and miRNAs.
摘要:
The present invention discloses antisense poly-2null-O-(2,4-dinitrophenyl) oligoribonucleotides which are capable of down regulating the expression of the RInull subunit of protein kinase A. An example is 5null-GGCUGCGUGCCUCCUCACUGG (named antisense poly-DNP RNA-21) or a sequence which has a one-base mismatch therewith. The antisense oligoribonucleotide can be synthesized by in vitro transcription followed by chemical derivatization. The base sequence of the oligoribonucleotides is complementary to that of nt 110 to 130 in RInull/PKA mRNA. The antisense poly-DNP RNA-21 was found to inhibit cell growth with IC50 values in the nanomolar range. These oligonucleotides can be used as effective anti-cancer agents.
