| 20120094903 | COMPOSITIONS FOR INTRANASAL DELIVERY OF HUMAN INSULIN AND USES THEREOF - What is described is a pharmaceutical formulation for intranasal delivery of insulin to a patient, comprising an aqueous mixture of human insulin, a solubilizing agent, a surface active agent, and a thickening agent, wherein said formulation provides a ultra-rapid acting profile to regular human insulin. | 04-19-2012 |
| 20110313020 | UsiRNA Complexes - This disclosure provides double-stranded RNA complexes having one or more hydroxymethyl substituted nucleomonomer(s) in the passenger strand (or sense strand) of an RNA complex. RNA complexes of the disclosure may be useful for therapeutic applications, diagnostic applications or research applications. RNA complexes include short interfering RNA complexes (siRNA) capable of modulating gene expression comprising an antisense strand and a continuous or a discontinuous passenger strand (“sense strand”). Further, one or more hydroxymethyl substituted nucleomonomer(s) of this disclosure may be positioned at the 3′-end, at the 5′-end, at both the 3′-end and 5′end. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20110236972 | NUCLEIC ACID COMPOUNDS FOR INHIBITING BIRC5 GENE EXPRESSION AND USES THEREOF - The present disclosure provides RNA molecules, for example, meroduplex ribonucleic acid molecules (mdRNA), capable of decreasing or silencing BIRC5 gene expression. An mdRNA of this disclosure comprises at least three strands that combine to form at least two non-overlapping double-stranded regions separated by a nick or gap wherein one strand is complementary to a BIRC5 mRNA. Also provided are methods of decreasing expression of a BIRC5 gene in a cell or in a subject to treat a BIRC5-related disease. | 09-29-2011 |
| 20110177160 | Amino acid lipids and uses thereof - This disclosure provides a range of amino acid lipid compounds and compositions useful for drug delivery, therapeutics, and the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and conditions. The amino acid lipid compounds and compositions can be used for delivery of various agents such as nucleic acid therapeutics to cells, tissues, organs, and subjects. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20110136233 | NUCLEIC ACID COMPOUNDS FOR INHIBITING PLK1 GENE EXPRESSION AND USES THEREOF - The present disclosure provides RNA molecules, for example, meroduplex ribonucleic acid molecules (mdRNA), capable of decreasing or silencing gene expression of PLK1 gene. An mdRNA of this disclosure comprises at least three strands that combine to form at least two non-overlapping double-stranded regions separated by a nick or gap wherein one strand is complementary to a PLK1 mRNA. Also provided are methods of decreasing expression of a PLK1 gene in a cell or in a subject to treat a PLK family member-related disease. | 06-09-2011 |
| 20110130327 | Multi-Arm Amines and Uses Thereof - Multi-arm amine compounds and compositions for enhancing intracellular, in vitro, and in vivo delivery of drug, active, and therapeutic substances including ribonucleic acids. This disclosure provides novel compounds and compositions for making and using delivery materials and carriers which increase the efficiency of delivery of biologically active and pharmacologically active molecules. Embodiments of this disclosure may further provide delivery of various therapeutic agents including nucleic acid therapeutics such as regulatory RNA, interfering RNA, and agents for RNAi, as well as other protein and peptide therapeutics. In some aspects, this disclosure provides multi-arm amine compounds and compositions which can enhance permeation of a drug substance. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110077284 | DRY POWDER COMPOSITIONS FOR RNA INFLUENZA THERAPEUTICS - A dry powder formulation for delivery to a mammal by inhalation, the formulation comprising particles comprising a lipid, a carrier, and one or more double-stranded siRNA molecules or dicer-active precursors targeted to influenza virus A method for treating or preventing influenza in a mammal comprising administering a therapeutically-effective amount of a dry powder formulation. | 03-31-2011 |
