Grant Activity:
Splice switching oligonucleotides for the treatment of chronic kidney disease
Purpose:
RNA can now be used to safely and selectively treat human diseases.
RNA can be used as a template to make a new protein, such as in mRNA vaccines.
But RNA can also be used change how coding elements are spliced together and the protein that results from them.
This strategy has recently been used to great effect in difficult-to-treat diseases, like muscular dystrophy.
We will now apply this same disruptive RNA technology to develop a novel treatment for chronic kidney disease.
