(vii) The ASOs should have low toxicity, immunogenicity, mutagenicity, and should have a large therapeutic window. (vi) The cost of production should be low. (v) The ASOs should not non-specifically interact with other cellular factors. (iv) The ASOs must effectively interact with the target. (iii) The ASOs must be retained by the cells. (ii) The ASOs must be efficiently taken up by the cells. (i) The ASOs must be stable to degradation in vivo. The high association constants imply a strong duplex formation and thus effectiveness at low concentrations.įor ASO therapy, several criteria are important. These advantages include the extremely high specificity and the ease of design afforded by Watson-Crick base pairing. Oligonucleotides for therapy have several advantages. Other regulatory mechanisms of viruses, such as HIV, are also open to interference with the use of complimentary (i.e. Production of viral proteins can be inhibited by oligonucleotides that are complimentary to portions of mRNA for that protein (i.e. This regulatory interference can be harnessed for therapeutic effects against many diseases and viral infections. "decoy") oligonucleotides, oligoribonucleotides, and modified oligonucleotides (collectively referred to herein as ASOs) are gaining overwhelming popularity for interference in various steps leading from DNA transcription to mRNA translation. sequences complementary to the "sense" strand, usually the messenger RNA) and otherwise interfering (e.g. C07H21/00- Compounds containing two or more mononucleotide units having separate phosphate or polyphosphate groups linked by saccharide radicals of nucleoside groups, e.g.C07H- SUGARS DERIVATIVES THEREOF NUCLEOSIDES NUCLEOTIDES NUCLEIC ACIDS.Anticipated expiration legal-status Critical Status Expired - Lifetime legal-status Critical Current Links ASSIGNMENT OF ASSIGNORS INTEREST (SEE DOCUMENT FOR DETAILS).
