Some GM plants already use
RNA interference to disable unwanted enzymes, or to kill viruses or pests.
RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a leading therapeutic strategy in oncogene therapy applications (Mello and Conti, 2004; Kim and Rossi, 2007).
"
RNA interference holds a huge amount of promise for a number of disorders, one of which is cancer, but also neurological disorders and immune disorders," she says.
"Our challenge with
RNA interference technology is to figure out how to deliver it into the human brain in a sustained, safe and effective manner," said Nolta.
Benitec Limited (ASX:BLT) (PINK:BNIKF) holds a dominant position in expressed
RNA interference (RNAi)-based human therapeutics, with a transformational platform technology supported by a robust and extensive intellectual property portfolio.
of Western Ontario, Canada) and Ichim, an industry immunologist, compile 27 chapters describing current science and protocols in
RNA interference (RNAi) for disciplines from detailed nucleic acid chemistry to pharmacology to manipulation of signal transduction pathways.
RXi Pharmaceuticals is a discovery-stage biopharmaceutical company pursuing the development and commercialization of proprietary therapeutics based on
RNA interference (RNAi) for the treatment of human diseases.
RXi Pharmaceuticals Corporation (Nasdaq: RXII), Worcester, Mass., a biopharmaceutical company pursuing the development and commercialization of proprietary therapeutics based on
RNA interference (RNAi), has recently acquired direct ownership of technology for which it had previously exercised its option to exclusively license from Advirna LLC.
A $6 million grant to the medical school from the National Institutes for Health will fund more research into
RNA interference, a line of research that attempts to "silence" specific genes that cause disease.
They then tested the activity of the 100 most promising candidates with a scientific technique called
RNA interference (RNAi).
