Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is titled "Compositions and methods for correcting limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2C using exon skipping." This invention is directed towards one or more antisense polynucleotides and their application in pharmaceutical compositions. The strategy aims to induce exon skipping in the γ-sarcoglycan gene for patients suffering from Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy-2C (LGM-D2C) or those at risk of developing this condition. The invention also outlines methods for preventing or treating muscular dystrophy, such as LGMD2C, through exon skipping in the gamma sarcoglycan gene using antisense polynucleotides. In some aspects, the invention provides an isolated antisense oligonucleotide that specifically hybridizes to an exon target region of a γ-sarcoglycan RNA. Additionally, it includes a method for inducing exon-skipping of a gamma sarcoglycan RNA by delivering an antisense oligonucleotide or a composition to a cell.
