    Abstract: A method and compound for treating skeletal muscle mass deficiency in a human subject are disclosed. The composition is an oligomer of morpholino subunits and phosphorus-containing intersubunit linkages joining a morpholino nitrogen of one subunit to a 5? exocyclic carbon of an adjacent subunit, contains between 10-40 nucleotide bases, has a base sequence effective to hybridize to an expression-sensitive region of processed or preprocessed human myostatin RNA transcript, identified, in its processed form, by SEQ ID NO:6, and is capable of uptake by target muscle cells in the subject. In practicing the method, the compound is administered in an amount and at a dosage schedule to produce an overall reduction in the level of serum myostatin measured in the patient, and preferably to bring the myostatin level within the a range determined for normal, healthy individuals.

  • Publication number: 20110152215
    Abstract: It has been discovered that certain natural mRNAs serve as metabolite-sensitive genetic switches wherein the RNA directly binds a small organic molecule. This binding process changes the conformation of the mRNA, which causes a change in gene expression by a variety of different mechanisms. Modified versions of these natural “riboswitches” (created by using various nucleic acid engineering strategies) can be employed as designer genetic switches that are controlled by specific effector compounds. Such effector compounds that activate a riboswitch are referred to herein as trigger molecules. The natural switches are targets for antibiotics and other small molecule therapies.

  • Publication number: 20110105434
    Abstract: Anti-herpetic material such as 2-amino purine derivatives to prevent or treat autoimmune disease or a disease originating from an abnormal functioning of the sympathetic chain in a human subject. The disease is often of a tissue or organ associated with decreased blood flow to the tissue or organ (correlated with hypertonicity of the vessels feeding the tissue or organ). The treatment reduces inflammation, scarring, destruction, and pain in the tissue or organ affected and returns the tissue or organ to nearly normal functioning, while showing none of the side effects of previous treatments. Prolonged use of the anti-herpetic compounds reduces prodrome, vesicle formation and viral shedding. The anti-herpetic compounds may be administered alone or in combination with a compound that reduces the rate of renal excretion of the anti-herpetic compound. The anti-herpetic compounds are particularly useful when administered at a level equivalent in activity to 250 mg/kg famciclovir per day.
