  • Patent number: 11781137
    Abstract: Provided herein are RNAi molecules including a first strand containing a guide sequence and a second strand comprising a non-guide sequence where the non-guide sequence contains a bulge opposite the seed region of the guide sequences; e.g., opposite the cleavage sequence. In some aspects, the invention provides RNAi for treating Huntington's disease. Further provided herein are expression cassettes, vectors (e.g., rAAV, recombinant adenoviral, recombinant lentiviral, and recombinant HSV vectors), cells, viral particles, and pharmaceutical compositions containing the RNAi. Yet further provided herein are methods and kits related to the use of the RNAi, for example, to treat Huntington's disease.

  • Publication number: 20200197374
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method of treating a proteinopathy in a subject, the method comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a quinuclidine compound. The disclosure also relates to a method of reducing, reversing or preventing the accumulation of protein aggregates in tissue of a subject diagnosed as having a proteinopathy, or being at risk of developing a proteinopathy, the method comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of a quinuclidine compound. Also disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition comprising a quinuclidine compound for use in said methods. The proteinopathy may be a synucleinopathy or a tauopathy, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease or dementia with Lewy bodies.

  • Publication number: 20200124624
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of determining the efficacy of a treatment for a proteopathy, diagnosing a proteopathy in a subject, determining a subject's risk of developing a proteopathy, determining the stage of a proteopathy in a subject, monitoring a proteopathy in a subject, selecting a treatment for a proteopathy for a subject, and selecting a subject for a clinical trial that include determining a level of at least one sphingolipid in a sample including a biological fluid from the subject.
