Abstract: The invention relates to methods and compositions for the treatment/and or prevention of eye conditions related to high levels of expression and/or activity of the vanilloid-1 receptor (TRPV).

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions that decrease intraocular pressure (IOP) of the eye. The compositions of the invention comprise short interfering nucleic acid molecules (siNA) including, but not limited to, siRNA that decrease expression of genes associated with production or drainage of intraocular fluid. The compositions of the invention can be used in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of eye conditions displaying increased IOP such as glaucoma, infection, inflammation, uveitis, and diabetic retinopathy. The methods of the invention comprise the administration to a patient in need thereof of an effective amount of one or more siNAs of the invention.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for the treatment of pathologic conditions of the central nervous system (CNS) by means of intranasal administration of a composition that modulates, by means of RNA interference, the expression and/or activity of genes involved in above-mentioned conditions.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel oligomer analogues and their use in oligonucleotide-based therapies. More specifically, the invention concerns oligonucleotides carrying lipid molecules and their use as potential inhibitors of gene expression.
