Therapeutic potential of antisense oligonucleotides as modulators of alternative splicing.
An estimated 60% of all human genes undergo alternative splicing, a highly regulated process that produces splice variants with different functions. Such variants have been linked to a variety of cancers, and genetic diseases such as thalassemia and cystic fibrosis. This Perspective describes a promising approach to RNA repair based on the use of antisense oligonucleotides to modulate alternati...
متن کاملRestoration of correct splicing in IVSI-110 mutation of β-globin gene with antisense oligonucleotides: implications and applications in functional assay development
Objective(s): The use of antisense oligonucleotides (AOs) to restore normal splicing by blocking the recognition of aberrant splice sites by the spliceosome represents an innovative means of potentially controlling certain inherited disorders affected by aberrant splicing. Selection of the appropriate target site is essential in the success of an AO therapy. In this study, in search for a splic...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Tricyclo-DNA antisense oligonucleotides
Oligonucleotide therapeutics hold great promise for the treatment of various diseases and the antisense field is constantly gaining interest due to the development of more potent and nuclease resistant chemistries. Despite a rather low success rate with only three antisense drugs being clinically approved, the frontiers of AON therapeutic applications have increased over the past three decades ...
متن کاملPrevalence of Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases in Kerman, Southeast of Iran
Objective: Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) are rare and heterogeneous congenital diseases leading to increased unusual susceptibility to developing infections and causingsome malignancies and autoimmune diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of primary these diseases in patients attending the clinic of immunodeficiency diseases in Kerman.Subje...
متن کاملTherapeutic correction of ApoER2 splicing in Alzheimer's disease mice using antisense oligonucleotides
Apolipoprotein E receptor 2 (ApoER2) is an apolipoprotein E receptor involved in long-term potentiation, learning, and memory. Given its role in cognition and its association with the Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk gene, apoE, ApoER2 has been proposed to be involved in AD, though a role for the receptor in the disease is not clear. ApoER2 signaling requires amino acids encoded by alternatively s...
