Thi E, Dhillon A, Ardzinski A, Bidirici-Ertekin L, Cobarrubias K, Cuconati A, et al.
ACS Infect Dis . 2018 Nov; 5(5):725-737. PMID: 30403127
Current approved nucleoside analogue treatments for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection are effective at controlling viral titer but are not curative and have minimal impact on the production of...

Snead N, Escamilla-Powers J, Rossi J, McCaffrey A
Mol Ther Nucleic Acids . 2013 Jul; 2:e103. PMID: 23820891
Optimization of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) is important in RNA interference (RNAi)-based therapeutic development. Some specific chemical modifications can control which siRNA strand is selected by the RNA-induced silencing complex...

Snead N, Wu X, Li A, Cui Q, Sakurai K, Burnett J, et al.
Nucleic Acids Res . 2013 Apr; 41(12):6209-21. PMID: 23620279
The canonical exogenous trigger of RNA interference (RNAi) in mammals is small interfering RNA (siRNA). One promising application of RNAi is siRNA-based therapeutics, and therefore the optimization of siRNA efficacy...

Snead N, Rossi J
Nucleic Acid Ther . 2012 Jun; 22(3):139-46. PMID: 22703279
The manifestation of RNA interference (RNAi)-based therapeutics lies in safe and successful delivery of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), the molecular entity that triggers and guides sequence-specific degradation of target mRNAs....
