  • Patent number: 9006195
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to regulation of functions of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by delivering of miRNAs, including miR-125b, miR-126, and miR-155, to HSCs. For example, in some embodiments, blood output in a mammal can be increased by administering miR-125b, miR-126, and/or miR-155 oligonucleotides. Also disclosed are methods for promoting hematopoietic stem cell engraftment and method for treating a myeloproliferative disorder.

  • Patent number: 8685727
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to regulation of macrophage activation by delivering of miRNAs, for example miR-125b or anti-miR-125b, to macrophages. For example, in some embodiments, macrophage activation can be elevated or reduced by administering miR-125b or anti-miR-125b oligonucleotides. Also disclosed are methods for promoting T cell activation and method for treating various disorders such as tumor and autoimmune diseases.

  • Publication number: 20120064122
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the finding that microRNA-155 plays a role in the development and activity of CD4+ T cells. CD4+ T cell development and function, particularly TH17 and TH1 T cell development, can be modulated by delivery of microRNA-155 (miR-155) or antisense miR-155 to target CD4+ cells or precursor cells. In some embodiments, antisense miR-155 is used to reduce tissue specific autoimmune inflalmmation and to treat autoimmune disease. In addition, miR155 and antisense miR-155 can be used to modulate expression of cytokines from dendritic cells.
