The sequencing of the human genome and subsequent elucidation of the molecular pathways that are important in the pathology of disease have provided unprecedented opportunities for the development of new therapeutics. Nucleic acid-based drugs have emerged in recent years to yield extremely promising candidates for drug therapy to a wide range of diseases. Advances in Nucleic Acid Therapeutics is a comprehensive review of the latest advances in the field, covering the background of the development of nucleic acids for therapeutic purposes to the array of drug development approaches currently being pursued using antisense, RNAi, aptamer, immune modulatory and other synthetic oligonucleotides. Nucleic acid therapeutics is a field that has been continually innovating to meet the challenges of drug discovery and development; bringing contributions together from leaders at the forefront of progress, this book depicts the many approaches currently being pursued in both academia and industry. A go-to volume for medicinal chemists, Advances in Nucleic Acid Therapeutics provides a broad overview of techniques of contemporary interest in drug discovery.

Discover a new paradigm in drug discovery that greatly expands the space of addressable drug targets and potential novel drugs Existing paradigms for drug discovery have focused largely on enzymes and other proteins as drug targets. In recent years, however, different varieties of ribonucleic acids have emerged as a viable focus for target-based drug discovery, with the potential to revolutionize the strategy and approach for this essential step in the drug development process. RNA as a Drug Target: The Next Frontier for Medicinal Chemistry offers a practice-oriented introduction to developing drug-like small molecules that selectively modulate both coding and non-coding RNAs. Beginning with a description and characterization of existing druggable RNAs, the book discusses how to approach different RNA targets for drug discovery. The result is a crucial resource for targeting RNAs and creating the next generation of life-saving pharmaceuticals. RNA as a Drug Target readers will also find: A complete “toolbox” for working with RNA, from structure determination to screening and lead generation techniques A wide range of addressable targets and mechanisms, including splicing modulation, riboswitches, targeted degradation, and more Authoritative discussion of the potential of RNA-targeted small molecule therapeutics for drugging the epitranscriptome RNA as a Drug Target provides an expert introduction to a new frontier in pharmaceutical research for medicinal chemists, biochemists, molecular biologists, and members of the pharmaceutical industry.

A cutting-edge review of the important issues underlying the therapeutic use of nucleic acid-mediated gene silencing. Topics range from basic methodology and delivery to targeting and clinical targets. The authors thoroughly explain the latest developments in RNA biology, as well as the underpinnings of RNA interference, oligodeoxynucleotide delivery into cells, and strategies for targeting these molecules to accessible regions within the mRNA. They also provide some examples of how these new therapeutic compounds are being used clinically.

The enormous potential of siRNA as a therapeutic has led to an explosion of interest from the scientific community. There has been intense interest from Big Pharma to capitalise on this new technology but the fact remains that delivery is a key determinant in realizing the full clinical potential of RNA interference. There is an urgent need for better delivery methods to take this technology forward. This book addresses the role of different RNAi molecules in cellular processes as rational for diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. This book will cover RNAi therapeutic design to optimize siRNA potency and reduce off-target effects and current delivery technologies to overcome both intracellular and extracellular barriers. The reader will gain an insight into RNA interference from the cellular mechanisms to screening to siRNA design right through to diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
