Journal ArticleDOI
Targeted Inhibition of miRNA Maturation with Morpholinos Reveals a Role for miR-375 in Pancreatic Islet Development
TL;DR: The miRNA knockdown strategy presented here will be widely used to unravel miRNA function in zebrafish and is likely to cause aberrant formation of the endocrine pancreas, one of the first loss-of-function phenotypes for an individual miRNA in vertebrate development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morpholinos and their peptide conjugates: therapeutic promise and challenge for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Hong M. Moulton,Jon D. Moulton +1 more
TL;DR: Compared to PMOs, far lower doses of PPMOs can restore dystrophin sufficiently to reduce disease pathology, increase skeletal and cardiac muscle functions, and prolong survival of animals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gene Knockdowns in Adult Animals: PPMOs and Vivo-Morpholinos
Jon D. Moulton,Shan Jiang +1 more
TL;DR: Antisense-based techniques such as blocking translation, modifying pre-mRNA splicing, inhibiting miRNA maturation and inhibiting viral replication can be conveniently applied in adult animals by injecting PPMOs or Vivo-Morpholinos.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Morpholinos to control gene expression.
Jon D. Moulton,Yi-Lin Yan +1 more
TL;DR: This work focuses on techniques and background for using Morpholinos, which are typically used to inhibit translation of mRNA, splicing of pre‐mRNA, and maturation of miRNA, although they can also inhibit other interactions between biological macromolecules and RNA.
Journal Article
Peptide-assisted delivery of steric-blocking antisense oligomers.
Hong M. Moulton,Jon D. Moulton +1 more
TL;DR: A convenient and effective method now exists to screen transport peptides by measuring oligo uptake by quantitating antisense activity of conjugates, and these assays are faster and have higher signal-to-noise ratios than downregulation assays.
