Abstract: Wound healing is a complex homeostatic process in which several distinct types coordinate to repair a physical damage. Failure to close wounds contributes to the pathology of conditions like diabetes mellitus, particularly in the elderly. Presented herein are molecules, pharmaceutical compositions, and methods for applying small RNA oligonucleotide technology to wound healing. Small RNA oligonucleotide approaches as disclosed herein provide a therapeutic strategy for improving both basal and pathological wound healing.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention include the production and use of chemically modified RNAi agents (e.g., shRNAs) in gene silencing applications. The chemically modified RNAi agents disclosed herein have reduced immunostimulatory activity, increased serum stability, or both, as compared to a corresponding RNAi agent not having the chemical modification. Compositions containing chemically modified RNAi agents according to aspects of the present invention (including pharmaceutical compositions) and kits containing the same are also provided.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for the processing, amplification and detection of polynucleotides using target-specific oligonucleotides (TSOs). Hybridization of TSOs to target polynucleotides guides target processing into and purification of small target fragments that then can be amplified and detected with high sensitivity and reproducibility. The method is specifically beneficial for highly degraded polynucleotides found in biological samples.

Abstract: Methods, systems and compositions are provided for analyzing one or more nucleic acid molecules. The methods, systems and compositions may comprise one or more target specific-oligonucleotide probes (TSPs). The TSPs may hybridize to nucleic acid molecules that are less than or equal to 200 nucleotides in length. The nucleic acid molecules may be small RNA molecules (e.g., miRNA, ncRNA, siRNA, shRNA). The methods, systems and compositions fmd use in a number of applications, for example, isolation of nucleic acid molecules, analysis of low abundance nucleic acid molecules, and/or enrichment of nucleic acid molecules.
