    Abstract In recent years, several splice switching antisense oligonucleotide (ASO)-based therapeutics have gained significant interest, and several candidates received approval for clinical use for treating rare diseases, in particular, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and spinal muscular atrophy. These ASOs are fully modified; in other words, they are composed of chemically modified nucleic acid analogues instead of natural RNA oligomers. This has significantly improved drug-like properties of these ASOs in terms of efficacy, stability, pharmacokinetics, and safety. Although chemical modifications of oligonucleotides have been discussed previously for numerous applications including nucleic acid aptamers, small interfering RNA, DNAzyme, and ASO, to the best of our knowledge, none of them have solely focused on the analogues that have been utilized for splice switching applications. To this end, we present here a comprehensive review of different modified nucleic acid analogues that have been explored for developing splice switching ASOs. In addition to the antisense chemistry, we also endeavor to provide a brief historical overview of the approved spice switching ASO drugs, including a list of drugs that have entered human clinical trials. We hope this work will inspire further investigations into expanding the potential of novel nucleic acid analogues for constructing splice switching ASOs.

    Abstract A diverse array of organic and inorganic materials, including nanomaterials, has been extensively employed in multifunctional biomedical applications. These applications encompass drug/gene delivery, tissue engineering, biosensors, photodynamic and photothermal therapy, and combinatorial sciences. Surface and bulk engineering of these materials, by incorporating biomolecules and aptamers, offers several advantages such as decreased cytotoxicity, improved stability, enhanced selectivity/sensitivity toward specific targets, and expanded multifunctional capabilities. In this comprehensive review, we specifically focus on aptamer-modified engineered materials for diverse biomedical applications. We delve into their mechanisms, advantages, and challenges, and provide an in-depth analysis of relevant literature references. This critical evaluation aims to enhance the scientific community's understanding of this field and inspire new ideas for future research endeavors.

    Abstract Cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally. Epidermal growth factor receptor is one of the proteins involved in cancer cell proliferation, differentiation, and invasion. Antisense oligonucleotides are chemical nucleic acids that bind to target messenger ribonucleic acid and modulate its expression. Herein, we demonstrate the efficacy of splice-modulating antisense oligonucleotides to target specific exons in the extracellular (exon 3) and intracellular (exon 18, 21) domains of epidermal growth factor receptor. These antisense oligonucleotides were synthesized as 25mer 2'-O methyl phosphorothioate-modified ribonucleic acids that bind to complementary specific regions in respective exons. We found that PNAT524, PNAT525, PNAT576, and PNAT578 effectively skipped exon 3, exon 18, and exon 21 in glioblastoma, liver cancer, and breast cancer cell lines. PNAT578 treatment also skipped partial exon 19, complete exon 20, and partial exon 21 in addition to complete exon 21 skipping. We also found that a cocktail of PNAT576 and PNAT578 antisense oligonucleotides performed better than their individual counterparts. The migration potential of glioblastoma cancer cells was reduced to a greater extent after treatment with these antisense oligonucleotides. We firmly believe that using these splice-modulating antisense oligonucleotides in combination with existing EGFR-targeted therapies could improve therapeutic outcomes.

    Abstract The last decade (2013-2023) has seen unprecedented successes in the clinical translation of therapeutic antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs). Eight such molecules have been granted marketing approval by the United States Food and Drug Administration (US FDA) during the decade, after the first ASO drug, fomivirsen, was approved much earlier, in 1998. Splice-modulating ASOs have also been developed for the therapy of inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs), due to their ability to redirect aberrant splicing caused by mutations, thus recovering the expression of normal transcripts, and correcting the deficiency of functional proteins. The feasibility of treating IEM patients with splice-switching ASOs has been supported by FDA permission (2018) of the first "N-of-1" study of milasen, an investigational ASO drug for Batten disease. Although for IEM, owing to the rarity of individual disease and/or pathogenic mutation, only a low number of patients may be treated by ASOs that specifically suppress the aberrant splicing pattern of mutant precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA), splice-switching ASOs represent superior individualized molecular therapeutics for IEM. In this work, we first summarize the ASO technology with respect to its mechanisms of action, chemical modifications of nucleotides, and rational design of modified oligonucleotides; following that, we precisely provide a review of the current understanding of developing splice-modulating ASO-based therapeutics for IEM. In the concluding section, we suggest potential ways to improve and/or optimize the development of ASOs targeting IEM.

    Abstract Synthetic antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have emerged as one of the most promising therapeutic approaches. So far, nine ASO drugs have received approval for clinical use, and four of them are based on splice-switching principles demonstrating the impact of ASO-mediated splice modulation. Notably, three among them (Exondys 51, Vyondys 53 and Viltepso) are based on phosphorodiamidate morpholino (PMO) chemistry whereas Spinraza is based on 2'-

    Abstract Nucleic acids drugs have been proven in the clinic as a powerful modality to treat inherited and acquired diseases. However, key challenges including drug stability, renal clearance, cellular uptake, and movement across biological barriers (foremost the blood-brain barrier) limit the translation and clinical efficacy of nucleic acid-based therapies, both systemically and in the central nervous system. In this study we provide an overview of an emerging class of nucleic acid therapeutic, called DNAzymes. In particular, we review the use of chemical modifications and carrier molecules for the stabilization and/or delivery of DNAzymes in cell and animal models. Although this review focuses on DNAzymes, the strategies described are broadly applicable to most nucleic acid technologies. This review should serve as a general guide for selecting chemical modifications to improve the therapeutic performance of DNAzymes.
