Site-specific Incorporation of 2,5-Linked Nucleic Acids Enhances Therapeutic Profile of Antisense Oligonucleotides
ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters(2021)
摘要
Site-specific incorporation of 2'-modifications and neutral linkages in the deoxynucleotide gap region of toxic phosphorothioate (PS) gapmer ASOs can enhance therapeutic index and safety. In this manuscript, we determined the effect of introducing 2',5'-linked RNA in the deoxynucleotide gap region on toxicity and potency of PS ASOs. Our results demonstrate that incorporation of 2',5'-linked RNA in the gap region dramatically improved hepatotoxicity profile of PS-ASOs without compromising potency and provide a novel alternate chemical approach for improving therapeutic index of ASO drugs.
