Abstract: The invention provides non-hormonal vitamin D conjugated to therapeutic RNA compounds that result in the compounds having increased absorption, bioavailability or circulating half-life when compared to non-conjugated forms. The vitamin D targeting groups are coupled to the therapeutic RNA compounds via the third carbon on the vitamin D backbone.
