  • Publication number: 20240200063
    Abstract: Microglia are an essential part of the immune system in the central nervous system, as well as potential sources of disease. Gene silencing employs short interfering RNA (siRNA) to selectively target genes that are the source of such diseases. By employing branched siRNA, distribution of the siRNA throughout the CNS, including to the resident microglial cells, may be enhanced as compared to unbranched siRNA. Methods and compositions for the use of branched siRNA in a therapy are contained herein.
