Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Stroke remains a major cause of mortality and long-term disability worldwide. Recent studies elucidated well the complex pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke such as dynamic alternation of genes and proteins, which could contribute to develop novel therapeutics for acute stroke. We previously developed an heteroduplex oligonucleotide (HDO), which strongly silenced its target gene in many organs, and a peptide ribonucleic acids (PRNA), which regulated genes expression based on intracellular environmental condition (e.g. pH). By means of these two novel technologies, we aimed to create ischemia-specific oligonucleotide therapeutics system for acute stroke. In our studies, we have successfully developed a novel oligonucleotide, which could specifically and strongly inhibit gene expression in brain early in ischemic stroke and can dramatically influence its phenotype.
