TL;DR: In this paper, a two-vector gene therapy strategy was used to improve the pathology in a mouse model of Oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) by delivering "silence and replace" sequences in a single AAV vector.
Patent
Compositions and methods for treating oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (opmd)
TL;DR: In this article, a modified adeno-associated virus (AAV) delivery vector comprising'silence and replace' DNA constructs, compositions comprising same, and the use of the modified AAV and compositions to treat oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD) in individuals suffering from OPMD or which are predisposed thereto.
Patent
Reagents for treatment of ocular diseases and conditions associated with neovascularisation and use thereof
TL;DR: In this paper, RNA interference (RNAi) reagents for treatment or prevention of ocular diseases and conditions associated with neovascularisation, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD), compositions comprising same, and use thereof to treat individuals suffering from, or predisposed to, ocular disease and condition associated with NEVascularisation.
