A new strategy for siRNA stabilization by an artificial cationic oligosaccharide

Scienmag

Credit: TMIMS RNA interference is a gene regulatory mechanism in which the expression of specific genes is downregulated by endogenous microRNAs or by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). To improve their stability, most of the developed siRNA-based […].

RNA Therapeutics: A Novel Approach to Treating Diseases

Roots Analysis

RNA therapeutics are a novel class of biopharmaceuticals that harness the power of RNA molecules for the treatment and prevention of a wide range of disorders, including oncological, and genetic disorders as well as infectious diseases. Non-coding RNAs include antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and RNA aptamers.

Epigenetic Editing with CRISPR Might Be Easier Than We Thought

XTalks

The tool could also prove to be safer than conventional CRISPR-based gene therapies as it does not involve DNA editing, and thus would not cause potentially harmful off-target genomic changes. Genes can be switched on with a complementary tool called CRISPRon that has also been described in the paper. . Epigenetic Editing with CRISPR.
