  • COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR INHIBITING EXPRESSION OF Nav1.8 GENE
    Publication number: 20090258934
    Abstract: The invention relates to a double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) for inhibiting the expression of the Nav1.8 gene (Nav1.8 gene), comprising an antisense strand having a nucleotide sequence which is less that 25 nucleotides in length and which is substantially complementary to at least a part of the Nav1.8 gene. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the dsRNA together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier; methods for treating diseases caused by the expression of the Nav1.8 gene using the pharmaceutical composition; and methods for inhibiting the expression of the Nav1.8 gene gene in a cell.
    Type: Application

  • COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR INHIBITING EXPRESSION OF HUNTINGTIN GENE
    Publication number: 20080221055
    Abstract: The invention relates to a double-stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) for inhibiting the expression of the Huntingtin gene (HD gene), comprising an antisense strand having a nucleotide sequence which is less than 25 nucleotides in length and which is substantially complementary to at least a part of the HD gene. The invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the dsRNA together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier; methods for treating diseases caused by the expression of the HD gene, or a mutant form thereof, using the pharmaceutical composition; and methods for inhibiting the expression of the huntingtin gene in a cell.
