Patent number: 11697811Abstract: Molecules are provided for inducing or facilitating exon skipping in forming spliced mRNA products from pre-mRNA molecules in cells. The molecules may be provided directly as oligonucleotides or expression products of vectors that are administered to a subject. High rates of skipping can be achieved. High rates of skipping reduce the severity of a disease like Duchene Muscular Dystrophy so that the disease is more like Becker Muscular Dystrophy. This is a severe reduction in symptom severity and mortality.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2021Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: Royal Holloway, University of LondonInventors: Linda Popplewell, Ian Graham, John George Dickson
-
Patent number: 11624066Abstract: The invention relates to neurodegenerative disorders, and in particular to novel oligonucleotides for treating such conditions, for example Alzheimer's disease. The invention provides novel antisense oligonucleotides, and compositions comprising such oligos, and therapies and methods for treating neurodegenerative disorders. The invention includes genome editing techniques for achieving similar results as using the novel antisense oligonucleotides.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2019Date of Patent: April 11, 2023Assignee: Teesside UniversityInventors: Pavlos Alifragis, Linda Popplewell, John George Dickson, Amninder Sangha

Publication number: 20230060409Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and compositions for the treatment of NF-1 and NF-1 mediated conditions. The present disclosure further provides for methods of exon skipping and exon retention and compositions for use in such methods. Such methods of exon skipping and exon retention may be used in the methods of treatment discussed herein. The present disclosure further provides new therapeutic compounds, particularly oligonucleotides, including antisense oligonucleotides, for use in the methods described herein.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2020Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Deeann WALLIS, Robert KESTERSON, Bruce KORF, Andre LEIER, Laura LAMBERT, Linda POPPLEWELL, George DICKSON
