Abstract

A nucleic acid vaccine composition comprising one or more of a plasmid-based nucleic acid vaccine and immunotherapy, as well as a lipid formulation, is provided. In addition, the present invention provides a method of enhancing the potency of plasmid-based DNA vaccines and immunotherapies, by formulating a vaccine and/or immunotherapy in a lipid formulation, which is stable when refrigerated or stored frozen, is then delivered to a vaccinee by either needle/syringe, jet injection, or microneedles. The lipid formulation of the present invention comprises one or more lipid excipients selected from 1,2-Distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, Cholest-5-en-3β-ol, 1,2-Dimyristoyl-rac-glycero-3-methylpolyoxyethlene, and or more symmetric ionizable cationic lipids. The present invention increases vaccine potency dramatically. It was unexpectedly discovered that the level of immunogen, or immune response molecules, produced in vivo is increased (versus administering merely the vaccine or immunotherapy) and, in the case of a vaccine immunogen, the immune response is enhanced.

Abstract

A method for inhibiting expression of an mRNA having an expanded trinucleotide repeat region is provided comprising administering an oligomer comprising a sense strand and an antisense strand wherein: a) the antisense strand comprises a sequence of Formula (I): rGrCrUrGrCrUrGrCX1X2rCrUrGrCrUrGrCrUrG (I), wherein X1 and X2 are each independently selected from rA, rU, rG, rC, UNA-A, UNA-U, UNA-G, and UNA-C and wherein at least one of X1 and X2 is a UNA monomer; b) the oligomer comprises a UNA monomer at the first position at the 5′-end of the sense strand; and the sense strand and the antisense strand each independently include 19-29 monomers. The oligomer can be formulated in a lipid delivery vehicle, and can inhibit expression of Atrophin-1, Huntingtin, Ataxin-1, Ataxin-2, Ataxin-3, Ataxin-7, Alpha1A-voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit, TATA-box binding protein (TBP), Androgen Receptor, PP2A-PR55beta, FMR-1 Protein (FMRP), FMR-2 protein, Frataxin, Dystrophy Protein Kinase (DMPK), or Ataxin-8.

Abstract

Nucleic acid immunization is achieved by delivering a nucleic acid (NA), e.g., a mRNA or a DNA, encapsulated within a lipid-NA nanoparticle. The NA encodes an immunogenic compound of interest. The lipid-NA nanoparticle is effective for in vivo delivery of NA to a vertebrate cell, including upon administration to a subject. The lipid-NA nanoparticle are incorporated in pharmaceutical compositions for immunizing subjects against various diseases.

Abstract

The invention relates to a synthetic transfer RNA with an extended anticodon loop. The invention provides a synthetic suppressor transfer RNA useful for the treatment of a genetic disease like cystic fibrosis associated with a nonsense mutation.The synthetic transfer RNA contains an extended anticodon loop with two consecutive anticodon base triplets configured to base-pair to two consecutive codon base triplets on an mRNA. The first anticodon base triplet or the second anticodon base triplet is configured to base-pair to a stop codon base triplet on the mRNA.
